3:05 am
a legal oxymoron to benjamin netanyahu has said that his forces will retain control of the west bank and gaza off to the war. the is rarely prime minister has all his offices also rejected the legitimacy of b. i. c. j. case on the occupation of the palestinian territories. israel does not recognize the legitimacy of the proceedings of the international court in the hague regarding the legality of the occupation, which are an effort designed to infringe on israel's rights to defend itself against excess central threats. the proceedings in the hague or part of the palestinian attempt to dictate the results of the diplomatic settlement without negotiations, we will continue to reject this the government and the conduct that are united in rejecting this unacceptable course of action. clearly into songs is a 13 year long load. the lo raspy nodes charges is
3:06 am
a deliberate decision by us authorities, but of course it could full and today or tomorrow that is according to report which is without food is n g o ahead of what may be the final hearing on the jazz, which will flow as expedition case at the high court in london, none of this is inevitable. it remains within the us government's power to bring this judicial tragedy to an end. by dropping is 13 year old case against the sons and seizing this enlist persecution. no one should pay such treatment for publishing information in the public interest. it's time to protect journalism press freedom and all of our right to know. it's time to free us on now in which he may expand. it has been embroiled in legal controversies reuse in 2010. he faced allegations of sexual assault in sweden, which he denied, and he later sold refuge at the ecuadorian embassy in london to avoid expedition via the officer. his asylum status was revoked by act window in 2019. he was
3:07 am
arrested by british authorities and faced with an extradition requests now from the united states. sounds has been locked up in bel most prison in london while he's a legal team. baffles the case behind the move to the us. ok cheese. marina. acosta has been delving into this very complex story of the whistle blower and free speech advocates who has been vilified by american officials for revealing that there's the secrets to learn a song answered the spotlights with a bang, releasing a series of explosive and incriminating leaks about various state actors including the u. s. military. well, many call him a truth seeker, for those he exposed, he is of course, an enemy of the states. so what did he reveal? well, it all started in 2006 when event on known australia and computer programmer and
3:08 am
active is set up a small website that he called, which leaks, it was a platform for anonymous whistle blowers wanted to share top secret information and data well, fast forward for years and the sides exploded onto the global stage. also known as collateral murder, it's $27.00 then which leaks release is classified us military floods. it's showing call not helicopters, conducting a series of attacks on baghdad. and this was in 2007, and they killed over a dozen people, including suv reuters staff to shoot them off. i got just
3:09 am
a couple of the footage calls outrage on one side and of course panic on the other . it was not the 1st such incidents and definitely not the last but this time. no, it didn't involve the journalists, but more importantly, there was video evidence which was made worse, while the fact that the perpetrators was so adamant in the claims of innocence. we regret the loss of innocent life, but this incident was promptly investigated and there was never any attempt to cover up any aspect of this engagement. the words that kept forming on my lips were cold blooded murder. the us military. they just, they lied to us, it was all lice. suddenly everyone knew about which leaks and julie on the songs, the what's as was social care and it was picked up by most international media outlets. it may be, wes, look bad. so the homes was on and eventually the source was exposed and american soldier at the time called bradley manning and later chelsea. after his transition,
3:10 am
well, he leaks around $0.75 to military and diplomatic documents. manning was court martialed and convicted of espionage among other charges and jailed by us authorities a funny time it was a tough a year for the us. us with the leaks delivered another bomb shell and that one. but it blew the lid on the true scale of devastation caused by the american military is actions abroad, the iraq and ask god war diaries became a sensation, the rock files revealing a huge stuff. so as well as cases of abuse and torture by us led coalition forces to the reports detail 109000 32 deaths in a rock comprised of 66081 civilians. 23984 enemy. those labeled as insurgents. 15196 host nation rocky government forces and
3:11 am
3771 friendly coalition forces. the majority of the deaths, 66000 over 60 percent of these, our civilian deaths. that is 31 civilians dying every day. during the 6 year period, there were nearly $400000.00 military logs. it was a mess. washington claim that which leaks was put an american soldiers in danger by releasing this information to learn. the songs, however, argue that it was necessary to expose just how many lives were senselessly lost around the world due to us policies. what is the most single, damming revelation? the real story of this material? is it, it's for it's one damn thing often of most of it, this is for our as a result of the everyday scala overall. you know, i think that the,
3:12 am
the so called war on terror is, is what has created more terror in, in the region. i can tell you from my own experience in the c, i, a, that many, many outside of fighters that i interviewed, that i interrogated. i said the same thing. they said that they had no problem with the united states until we bombed their villages until we killed their parents until we killed their brothers. and their uncles and their cousins until we bombed to the hospitals or the schools in their villages. otherwise, they had no problem with the united states, but the more we bomb, the more we use drones, the more terrorist we create, that is a set is a very difficult proof that the united states doesn't want to face. and we have, julian assigned you and we get weeks to think for exposing that information. these leaks cover the us military's actions during the war. and they've gotten this
3:13 am
done from 2004 to 2010. 0, they revealed call us and forces attacks on civilians friendly fire incidents as well as, as gun forces attacking each other. and once again a much higher death. so including hundreds of civilians previously on reports as by the coalition. and here's just one example. during then fired $56.00 me and meet around at the bus. there are 4, ex coalition forces wounded in action to ex civilian killed, 13 next civilian injured. the main shock from the lakes was washington says, cover up of the true scale of civilian casualties from the media and the public with a staggering amount of attacks by call. listen, troops on ask and civilians, it does appear to be evidence of all crimes. and let's go through these files bring to light what's been a consistent trend by us and nato forces, the concealment of civilian casualties, despite numerous tactical directives,
3:14 am
ordering transparent investigations, when civilians are killed, there has been incidents i've investigated in recent months where this is still not happening the 2011 brought new leaks and this time it was about those detains at guantanamo bay, courtesy of the u. s. department of defense. so 779 people were imprisoned there from 2002. the eldest, been an 89 year old as gun village are suffering from dementia, and the youngest of 14 year old, innocent kidnapping victim. some people were page stopped for reasons like we're in a car. seal. watch seemed suspicious, apparently because there was use this timers by all call you i was sleep deprived, i was beaten till they broke my added, i was not given food for a very long periods of time. i was situated, assaulted on multiple occasions,
3:15 am
seemed to provision the 1st 70 days, northly, and all to 0. a reporter was obtained for 6 years to prove non existent links between the news outlets. and i'll call you to, even if you put someone in hell, they are going to say it's great because they just left to guantanamo. the media is not asking the real questions. how are they going to be reunited with their families? what are they going to live on once they are released, hundreds of lives destroyed in secrecy, with no fair trial and 0 regard for the law. now made headlines around the world and the world seemed grateful that a song had exposed how the us illegally the tape and even tortured innocence, people for years. the crucially, the files also contain detailed explanations of the supposed intelligence used to justify the prisoner's detention. the documents draw on the testimony of witnesses in most cases, the prisoner's fellow prisoners whose words are unreliable,
3:16 am
either because they were subjected to torture or other forms of coersion, sometimes not in guantanamo, but in secret prisons run by the ca, or because they provided full statements to secure better treatment in guantanamo, the court of cables dated all the way back to 1977 showing how us foreign policies and c i a activities lay the foundations for the emergence of ices, decades later, and when the terrorist eventually turns on america, washington says it tends to rain lemons, in particular, the role of hillary clinton, while this military or power mode treat operation is moving forward. we need to use our diplomatic and more traditional intelligence assets to bring pressure on the governments of costs are in saudi arabia, which i provide and clung, destined financial and logistics support. so i, so and other right, it goes to in the groups in the region. another email worth mentioning is this one
3:17 am
right here, we're job items, national security advisor, jake sullivan. then working for hillary clinton, soldier, that's a car that was on their side in syria to ok. the leader also wish you recall them most lives into to you and the me least to 8 rebel forces in their fight against the supporters of suzanne president, a sub in an internet video recording was over here. we also urged the syrian people not to rely on the arab league to kia or the united states for assistance. hillary clinton said it would go on to feel the wrath of wicked legs, once again in sweats to succeed in doing her presidential election campaign. clinton took $100000.00 in cash from and was director of a company that gave money to isis the disastrous, absolutely disastrous intervention in libya knew the destruction of the get off the government, which led to the occupation of isis, of large segments of the country with as far as going a little bit to,
3:18 am
to syria being pushed by hillary clinton into jobs within syria, including isis. and that's where in those emails, the largest ever publication of confidential documents on the c. i a turns out they can spy on all of us. year 0 introduces the scope and direction of the c. i a is global cobra hacking program. it's malware arsenal, and dozens of 0 de weaponized exploits against a wide range of us and european company products, including apple's iphone, google's android, and microsoft windows, and even samsung tvs, which are turned into cobra microphones, the c i a was furious and announced that it would work with the f, b i to conduct a criminal investigation. and so with the leaks because it was apparently damaged and the agencies claim, the ability to protect america against the bad guys will damage and or no. so these
3:19 am
revelations show, there's one source said a serious need to address the c i is hacking capabilities and whether they see that it's mandate its powers. instead, the us authorities did all that they could to destroy with leaks and silence julia saunders, who ultimately paid the heaviest prize for exposing their on accountable corruption and war crimes. well, the wiki leaks found a priest as a lifetime in prison. if he's found guilty in the us, will be bringing you the latest on the his case as we follow the hearings at the high schools in london over the next few days. more details and analysis and reaction though, of course, can always be found on our website. ok. see, don't com. just want to take you back to our top story. now these are the hearings at the hague only is ready occupation of the palestinian
3:20 am
territories. well, we're joined now by she's 70 funny to you the who's and i jerry in lawyer and professional and politician who's held several ministerial post. thank you very much for joining us here on archie international. i just want to ask you, what is your assessment of the i see j. k. so fall on the position that's being taken by so many african countries. well 1st of all, let me say it's a pleasure to know if it needs to be here on your programs today in direct answer to your question. um i um, cautiously optimistic about the efforts. so the i c j, i think the right thing. so it should have been done for south africa to go that initially for the 1st of hearings. and now for the 2nd sets of hearings. and i'm very proud of those. the went to the i, c j, the highest court in the world as it was to expose the atrocities that are being committed by the state of israel against the people of palestine. and they
3:21 am
specifically gave us garza and even the occupied westberg. and so i'm very happy about that. i believe the overwhelming majority of african people do like to with it. uh, i believe strongly in the south africa has come out to show the lead and such a shiny examples for the rest of africa and the rest of the world about what ought to be done when we have faced with mass murder, genocide, injustice, ethnic cleansing, an old matter of evil, particularly the chilliness of killing and targeting of women and children. so i'm very happy and i believe with the assessments essentially in terms of the response so far. i would have wanted them to go a little bit further in their last meeting. but it was quite explicit that israel should desist from coming to good choices. while we all know israel has refused to do that. they may not the reading with contempt, please continue to ignore it. and now the bout soon back on probably what will be the was was in reference if something is not done and i hope this time around the
3:22 am
ice, you will go much further and the credit history of this price, the before her loans. we've seen this rising and in many african countries, particularly in somewhere like not, you have more and more people have been in a rising against what these ratings are doing. how would you characterize the solidarity of peoples of africa with this cause of the palestinians in which african initiatives do you think of helping palestine do you consider to be the most effective right now? well, 1st and foremost i, i believe you're absolutely right. there is a rising and within the african people, as i lost them, i didn't know what the level of cry when i was to sleep is really invested nigeria on the national tv program here the other day saying that nigeria was was what, what, what was okay, with what they were doing, speaking for us as if to see ways slaves the reality. i could speak for niger there about 54 countries of the african coincidence a,
3:23 am
so i'm very reluctant to always categorize africans is always moving in one direction. or in this particular case, the overwhelming majority was involved. but i can send you over 250000000 nigerians on this planet. i live at this great country for where i was speaking to you from people who well, the majority of them are against my smooth genocide and estimate cleansing solidly behind the palestinian people. somebody have seduced what israel in terms of its existence. but the overwhelming majority of nigerians, i would say, africans are actually horrified. what's the flight shop to go to? i want use weight is doing. and when you ask what can be done, what, what needs to be done as far as the city of the follow the lead of south africa, i suppose the niger and i feel a little uncomfortable. we say south africa should lead us on anything, but they've taken the initiative. we also put a frightful role in world affairs as a nation. that is niger, i read so you can got the in this fight against injustice in casa, i mean,
3:24 am
i didn't, i didn't, i didn't put out against the power steering people. i don't think we need to spread that message for most people on the african continent. but it is not right to think that you are free and independent when our brothers and sisters and i was fight. what's the green gaza? a big shots that morning, day at night on a suffering. officious type of occupation likes it, which is true is never witnessed. for the last 75 years. these people have been oppressed. these people have been stopped to get to these people have been murdered . these people have been killed. are these people have been subject to the tennis and the walls just by silent the now the reality is that not many people knew about this. and so i'll just very briefly show the world what was going on on a daily basis. i'm one of those people. i was a great to me for an israel. artful. that gets real. what's a good, decent, civilized country they went to civilized people live. what i've started to tell you from what i've seen in the last full 5, but i can easily opposite. now this is a country that is massive green women and children,
3:25 am
housing groups of thousands of people have been injured over 55000 people, women and children, maybe 15000 insurance. the 5 hundreds of people have been, have been killed in the last 4 months. that's a well triple, and this is nothing less than a total cost. well, the last for the course. in the 2nd level, i run it be mostly perpetuated against choose brad, the germans. the rest of the law stood up and do something about it. and i believe strongly that's the angle rises. we'll get to a point. israel does to stop. the worst of the world will stand up and decide to do something about it. i can't wait for that. the, despite the support unreasonable, irrational mine support the americans are giving to these really is to kill people . i just want to pick you up on that point about that american support for as well . we've had rushes patient piece initiatives at the u. n. has been blocked numerous times each time via visa and from washington. why do you think the us is so opposed to an idea of a sci fi, which would save lives in garza?
3:26 am
simply because the americans and some of the europeans, not all i believe, but the u. k. and a few others of the americans led by the americans. but most of them, new york is a company misguided and also being disingenuous about this whole situation. what they expect the people of palestine to suffer, they will not accept the people to suffer it in the hands of anybody else. what they're trying to do in frustrating the efforts of russia. and i believe i have to say, i commend the efforts of president puts it on the russian state for standing up against injustice. not just not just on the policy didn't issue, but on so many issues. it started the like in syria. and so, so many other people have been following this with so basically many as the efforts are committed to once again for trying to bring peace and rationality of stability and equity to the world. the americans and the allies. the little thing every think, simply because the once we impose and they want to perpetuate or they want to ensure they have their own state,
3:27 am
which is desktop to like in the middle of the middle east to ensure that they control what you everything that is that they have an influence on oh, well, not for most of the arab regimes in that part of the world stuff. most of them are intimidated by the american. definitely tell me what results i just found out for true realities. the ones that probably students have suffered in terms of do not have self determination and being forced to live in the open president garza over the next step to live a noise. what date just to test and what is this all about? it's about the closing the head committee, insurance and a half of the colonial spots of my surplus sleep in israel tre. show that the interest of protected. talk about this real being a democracy. oh goodness me. was also the product of a democracy that does not mean to say if a democratic nation produce the mag, find them once that's like it's and you all the rest of the watch just if i could possibly not. i don't have a problem if the americans are between us that might because we probably just understand these government lost their minds. a believe it completely, they could, they could support evil and so many my slow down so and,
3:28 am
and so forth. because the devil himself or like a but you don't expect me as an individual from you find the kind of a living in nigeria to support that. and neither could you expect any voting from what they called the regional economic sauls truck. so you know what? because i'm just talking to the palestinians tomorrow. what happened to me? it was a rush, so screwed up. i've spoken up for the old press people. it was on many, many occasions. i said, no enough is enough. we'll stand up to american head committee. we'll start up to pizza shaking money. we'll start up to european double standards. we will say no, but on this particular case, mass murder, cottage, ethnic cleansing, genocide is beyond the pale. i say to a good deal. well, the majority of people, not just enough for the entire world long, but you come what's happening in america. people marching over the world, much and full thoughtful for the policy is the south american government. speaking out of the person, the results just the other day. and now he's been depressed for so long process
3:29 am
part of the state of israel for saying that what they're doing is genocide. oh, well that's what i consider to be the part of what i said on this program. the fate of genocide will be uh, inflicting a 2nd pull the posts on the women and children and people of cause that they are going to sort of thing but only seems to be as comfortable with. and they should be shame for it. they should be a shame for themselves, and i have absolutely no apologies for saying that in my country, my true, we have a 5050 most been christian divide. let me tell you something. i'll say 99 percent of was in this country or i guess what's going on for obvious reasons because the overwhelming majority of people in, in, in the, in palestine and most of what you also have a great number of probably about 70 percent of christian paul actually discussed that they may not voice it, but they are a shame to it because we weren't sure we weren't brought up actually says that i'm a christian. i'm a pentecostal evangelical question. i believe it might be, well both up to most of the state of israel, both. okay. every good, we're going to have to leave it that we're getting out of time at chief all the
3:30 am
funding, toyota, to thank you so much for your use. appreciate your time. here and i'll to international thinking about sledging lawyer and veteran and politician chief, had me funny coyote. thank you very much indeed. things well must go said some foreign miseries were involved in ukraine's fail defense of the doing that square public city of of d f. which was taken over by russian troops over the weekend. of the lasers projects released by the russian defense ministry shows a form a strong hold of the notorious as and forgave. inside the cities, rushes force of discovered stone upon the supplies that were abandoned by those retreating, including west and made equipment food russians. i'm plenty by, munitions must go successfully with most and reese from other countries like. 1 of the in georgia 5 we've been hearing from the russian sold definitely took part in
