Inside Story - Will Donald Trump Last through His First Full Term as US President?

There has not been a dull moment in the White House since US President Donald Trump took office. In the past eight months there's been a series of executive orders and a string of high profile departures.

Yet the president insists there is "no chaos" in his administration. But the polls tell a different story. His approval ratings have plummeted and members of his own Republican party are questioning his capability as president, with some calling the White House a "sinking ship'.

Trump has become increasingly isolated in recent months, shunned by major business leaders and at odds with his party's congressional leadership. And his comments after the violence in Charlottesville estranged him from more than half the nation.

Many are now beginning to wonder how long he will last as president. | Presenter: Hashem Ahelbarra | Guests: Oliver McGee - former Trump adviser; David A Love - Executive Editor of Black Commentator dot com; Jeanne Zaino - Professor of political science and international studies at Iona College

Inside Story - Why Does Europe Continue to Be a Terrorist Target?

In a couple of attacks to hit Spain this week, at least 14 people were killed when a speeding van ploughed through pedestrians on the famous Rambla boulevard in Barcelona on Thursday.

A woman died of her injuries following a similar attack in a car in the seaside resort of Cambrils nearby. Five men were shot dead by police. That followed an explosion at a house in the town of Alcanar, 200km south of Barcelona, where bomb makers are thought to have lived.

Authorities said the attacks in Barcelona and Cambrils were related and the work of a large cell that had been plotting for a long time from Alcanar.

Four arrests have been made, while seven other members of the suspected cell are confirmed dead.

The attacks in Spain are the latest in cities all over Europe. Most were claimed by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS), which is being driven from strongholds in the Middle East. So how potent a force are ISIL fighters in Europe? | Presenter: Hashem Ahelbarra | Guests: Yasser Louati - Human rights activist; Milo Comeford - Tony Blair Institute for Global Change; Greg Barton - Professor of Global Islamic Politics, Deakin University.

The Listening Post - Charlottesville, Trump and the Media

When hundreds of far-right protesters gathered in Charlottesville, Virginia last week, it was ostensibly to protect the planned removal of a Confederate monument. They were also out to assert themselves on the public stage, in front of the news cameras.

Given that the Robert E. Lee monument in question harkens back to the era of slavery in the US, a potent message was being sent. They were met with force that didn't come from the police. And when a car ploughed into a crowd of anti-fascist protesters, killing one and injuring many more, the recriminations were swift.

One of the so-called news sites that has been incubating far-right culture - a favourite of white supremacists, The Daily Stormer, was dumped by its online hosts for its toxic take on what happened in Charlottesville.

But that will hardly shake the confidence of the movement, not with the mixed, coded messaging coming out of President Donald Trump's White House.

Some of the president's comments had voices in the white power movement rejoicing.

"The response of Trump to say that 'we're seeing hatred on many sides' is really conspicuous and I think that people on the right are saying 'We got away with it,' says Shuja Haider, editor of Viewpoint Magazine.

Trump waited another 48 hours to condemn racism.

"Everyone heard that silence as an unwillingness to call out white supremacy and Nazism by name," explains Andrew Marantz, contributing editor for The New Yorker. "I think that the neo-Nazis heard it that way. I think that the far left heard it that way. I think Republican senators heard it that way."

Like many politicians, Donald Trump leaves much open to interpretation.

And for all his bluntness, all the hectic, late-night tweeting, Trump is more skilled at using coded messaging - what's known as dog whistling. It all started with his campaign slogan "Make America Great Again", which is seen by some as a rallying cry for a return to a different America, a whiter one.

"Dog whistle politics is just that. An attempt to convey racialised sentiments without using actual racialised language," says Osamudia James, a law professor at the University of Miami.

"One of the reasons these coded dog whistles are so effective is because while they reach the extremists that they're targeted towards, they kind of escape detection by most people," adds Haidar.

The showdown in Charlottesville took many Americans by surprise. But should it have?

Spain Attacks: Bigger Attacks Were Planned, Police Say – BBC News

The Barcelona and Cambrils attackers had been planning bigger attacks than the ones they carried out, police have said.

Catalan police chief Josep Lluis Trapero told a press conference officers believed the group had been preparing the attacks at a home in Alcanar. But an explosion in the house on Wednesday, which killed one person, wounded seven and destroyed material they were planning to use in the attacks, meant they had to carry them out in a "more rudimentary way", Mr Trapero said.

The four people arrested include three Moroccans and one Spanish national, police have said.

None of them had a criminal history relating to terrorism, police chief Josep Lluis Trapero told a press conference. Three were arrested in the village of Ripoll and one in the town of Alcanar, where the house at the centre of the investigation exploded on Wednesday night. The youngest person arrested was 21, while the others were 28, 34 and 27 years old, Mr Trapero said.

Criminal charges can now be brought against believers for activities such as proselytizing or simply gathering together.

White Nationalist Richard Spencer Talks to Al Jazeera (December 2016)

Richard Spencer is the president and director of the National Policy Institute and is credited with coining the term "alt-right". The movement is a loosely organized far-right group that espouses white nationalism and has shown strong support for US president-elect Donald Trump. Spencer describes alt-right as "the identity politics for white people in the 21st century". Spencer, 38, rose to prominence after a video surfaced of him shouting "Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory" at a Washington, DC conference as members of the crowd raised their hands in a Nazi salute. His National Policy Institute is listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center for promoting white-nationalist views. The institute's mission statement says it aims "to elevate the consciousness of whites, ensure our biological and cultural continuity, and protect our civil rights". "The institute ... will study the consequences of the ongoing influx that non-Western populations pose to our national identity," it says. Al Jazeera's Kristen Saloomey sat down with Spencer in College Station, Texas.

Ta-Nehisi Coates: With a Racist in the White House, the Bloodshed in Charlottesville was Predictable

The nation continues to grapple with the fallout from this weekend’s violence after a Nazi sympathizer drove into a crowd of anti-racist protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, killing one person and injuring 19. President Donald Trump finally condemned white supremacists on Monday for the bloodshed this weekend, after initially failing to directly blame the group. The move followed mounting pressure and severe backlash from nationwide street protests and corporate CEOs who resigned from Trump’s American Manufacturing Council over his failure to quickly condemn the deadly violence. Meanwhile, a Foreign Policy report revealed that an FBI and Department of Homeland Security bulletin concluded that white supremacist groups were responsible for more homicides "than any other domestic extremist movement." Despite these findings, the Trump administration recently slashed funds to organizations dedicated to fighting right-wing violence. To discuss all these developments, we speak with award-winning acclaimed author Ta-Nehisi Coates in his first major interview since the inauguration of President Donald Trump. He is the author of a forthcoming book, due out in October, "We Were Eight Years in Power: An American Tragedy."

Report: Crown Prince Wants End of Yemen War

Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has reportedly told two former U-S officials that he wants to end the war on Yemen, which has taken the lives of over 12-thousand Yemenis since 2015.

Middle East Eye says it has obtained emails that show Mohammed bin Salman discussed the issue with a former U-S ambassador to Israel and ex-U-S national security adviser Steven Hadley. In the emails, Prince Mohammed also said he was not opposed to U-S rapprochement with Iran. The conversation took place in May, a month before a Saudi-led group of countries cut ties with Qatar, accusing it of trying to undermine the war on Yemen and for having friendly relations with Iran. The 31-year-old heir to the Saudi throne, who oversees the deadly aggression, has at times accused Tehran of destabilizing the region.
