11:30 am
like germany, in the case of helen, i mean shame on germany who committed a genocide against the namibian people back in 1900. because everyone knows about the holocaust. the 27000000 soviets were killed so many millions of russians and ukrainians, and as are by johnny's, and of course, the 6000000 jews that of a 6000000 socialist, etc. the holocaust was horrific. why would germany again stand on the side of a hollow cause of human life? i would really like to hear an answer from my colleagues and friends in germany and across the western world. now washington and london have both spotted to raise the alarm over the humanitarian situation in gaza. yet both space continue to armies. well, how do you think the west is able to justify this weapons shipments? this is no justification only through what they call a forked tongue. they say one thing this way to the us people then they keep sending the billions and billions of ours. i can't help but chuckle mike,
11:31 am
because the hypocrisy is so astounding biting himself and all of his top officials in mrs. genocide expert ourselves, samantha powers, all of the big names at the united nations. everyone saying this is a genocide get they continue to say that their commitment to israel is, are in class. now the geo political reasons is because israel is it just, it just 76 years as a u. s. western imperial battling ram, not just against palestinian nationhood, but against the syrian popular interest against the iranian revolution, against 119. so israel again, this has nothing to do with judaism or religion. israel has been duped in used by western imperialism to do their bidding when it's half a 1000000000 arrow people in the arab world. the current is world olives. adversity of the middle east who fears the. busy a of oppose design is project in israel as a committee call this historically design is gets trapped because how are israel's
11:32 am
name is going to respond to this genocide? not just tomorrow, but in the upcoming decades. in, in, in, in years. professor dido saw thank you for standing strong and thank you for your opinions as well. thanks a lot, mike. all right, you can check auto dot com for more updates him. i'll see you again in about 15 minutes from now with more updates from around the world by now the the hey, everybody. just want to start off reminding you once again that we post a show every day. now, weekly is how we used to do it. daily is how we do it. now, thanks to you. you asked for it, so you're getting it. we whole know punch and so look for a troop pump. number one,
11:33 am
us president joe biden gives hope to julian assigns trip up. number 2. the australian prime minister says when it comes to a song, enough is enough truth, bob. number 3, when you see how mr biden says, what he says you may question his resolve to do it. i'll let you judge for yourself . i'm rick sanchez. this is direct to impact the so the president of the united states was um, walking away after meeting and giving a discussion, press conference with the japanese prime minister for me. oh, can she do? they were at the white house. when a reporter asked him a question about joe,
11:34 am
you know, such? now, interestingly enough, the question seems to come out of the field. here's why it happened though, the government almost drill. yeah. in case you hadn't heard, which is where i sondra is from. and this is important, we'll talk about that some more later. is uh, the government astray. yeah, it's formerly requesting, formerly requesting that the prosecution of a songy stop once and for all space. why? well, because beside assigns is cause it's become really, really popular and you know where it's become really popular australia in australia that causes very but both among the people and the members of parliament. the members of panama just recently overwhelmingly voted for a call for him to be free. you know, they all started in parliament. in case you want to give too much credit to the prime minister. look at where this is coming from. let's talk about the people of australia. as for the people of australia, in a recent poll, 79 percent,
11:35 am
almost 80 percent of the people of australia say it's time to do a song his freedom. so the people of australia are saying, why the hell is this guy? not what, why is this guy in prison? the panama stray is asking the same thing. people all over the world are asking the same thing. now remember, australia is an important us how and so maybe that's why in the past they didn't give a crap what their own people thought it was more important for them to have good relationship with united states. right. or maybe not. so as the president is walking with the japanese prime minister, a reporter shouts, this request from australia and he does it. of course the reporter in the form of the question here it is, the bit did you get that? that was it. i mean, it's the whole shipment. kaboodle,
11:36 am
ma'am biden uttered just 3 words. 3 words we are considering. that's what he says. and even that's a huge change of direction for a government that has wanted a sausage. i had, they suggested us officials of actually suggested that guy should be in prison for at least a 150 years. a 150 years. there's been talk that he should be executed if he comes to the united states. that's what some of the argument with the brits was about the they don't want him to be executed, but my god. why essentially for revealing embarrassing and secret, but structurally correct information about what the us government did in iraq and afghanistan. now i mentioned this earlier, but this is really important to the rest of the world. it's a no brainer. a no brainer. busy massage has suffered in. 1 off, but in the u. s, where the media is controlled in large measure by the military industrial complex
11:37 am
and its state sponsors. c, i a state department, white house, etc. it's not so clear to people who live here in the united states because that's not what they hear the news or on any shows or in general media massage has been held in a highly high security prison in london. now, since he was arrested, that was that 2019 before that he spent 7 terrible years hiding out. most of it living inside some ecuador and embassy room that smell. busy according to people went there pretty bad, and he was stuck in there. he could move to avoid extradition. well, mister biden's comment. if it didn't seem like an enthusiastic confirmation, it was enough to elicit this response from the australian prime minister. here it is. and i believe this must be brought to a conclusion. and that mister a son said so ready by the significant process and enough is enough. there's
11:38 am
nothing to be gained by mister ins assigned, continued incarceration in my very strong view. and i put that is the view of the strain government kind of hard to understand what language is speaking. but anyway, the words being picked from that carefully read statement enough is enough to hear that enough is enough. expect to see those words picked up as a rallying cry in the science defense. i wouldn't be surprised if you start seeing it on t shirts. but look once again at how mr. biden's response. maybe it's just his old age, but i think it's worth asking me, or maybe it's just me. i have some guess i'm going to have ask them to answer this question. watch this again. watch this again. does he even know what he's really responding to here? the
11:39 am
don't know. busy maybe even more encouraging for backers of massage is the domestic and geo political pickle. the us now finds itself in that may cause it to do this to, you know, to throw a bone at the global south countries as well as young voters in the us who are overwhelmingly pro a such. now think about this. us is getting hammered, hammered for helping the massacre. tens of thousands of women and children and gaza . it is being questioned world wide for feeding and prolonging the war in ukraine. all this, while countries like india, china, russia continue to be seen as counter weights to the very militant policies of us, the gemini, a, for all those reasons, the, by the ministration appears to be in desperate need of a, when something, anything that could make it look like if not so uncool or if nothing else at least
11:40 am
reasonable. right. and many believe that freeing the font frame julia massage could offer just that. that's my take. joining us now to discuss that role syndicated columnist, author and award winning cartoonist damn as our rider journalist expert on the us constitution. hey, let's start there. is this really a constitutional issue? the world sees it as just common sense? then you say what? oh, it's certainly cruel and unusual punishment. i would say. uh yeah, i mean this is a, this is american paranoid. it's worse. uh the uh, uh, science has been, uh, has been in the slander, abused in prison for a dozen years. in fact, today is 5th anniversary in march prison in london about before then he was spent 7 years in the ecuadorian embassy under very uncomfortable circumstances. and he's
11:41 am
been called the russian agents. he's been called a, a, he's a called a threat, a physical threat to american intelligence officers. it's all complete nonsense that joe biden called him a hi tech terrace. uh, it was, uh, its been extraordinary so. so is, this is certainly for the cruel and unusual category. i'm thinking also in terms of international law. as i look at this story, it, you know, it's funny, i've been following the story as long as you guys have, and maybe i'm just not the smartest guy in the world. but, and i'm just now putting together the fact that this guy from australia, he's an australian citizen. why is it that the laws of the united states and great britain and everybody else is laws except australia, as laws are the ones that have been used all this time to prosecute this man? um, why is it taking so long for australia to stay up? stand up and say to, hey, this is our citizen with that,
11:42 am
what you guys doing over there? yeah. well, if i were in australia national, i would be extremely displeased with the failure of my government to stand up for the rights of my co national. right. i mean it's, it's not, it doesn't speak very highly of the australians looking after their people, and that's what has changed your politics, australia, for much of a period that mr. hassan has been incarcerated for over the last 12 years. there was the right wing conservative government in power there, so they didn't really care and they cared far more about their relationship with united states uh than they did about mr. assad. even though i mean, look, here's the thing, mr. song doesn't owe anything to the united states to its laws at all. i mean, this is, this is as outlanders as if any of the 3 of us were suddenly arrested. i mean, to choose a country randomly, but under paraguay in law for violating paraguay of national security with respect
11:43 am
to paraguay, i have no loyalty to paraguay have never been to paris, but i don't know. i don't care about paragraphs. i'm not against the an neither does during the saw the aside from having visited the united states. sure. does he have any legal? he shouldn't be subject to us law. this is, it's an, it's an absurdity. what other countries do this no more? yeah, i was taking it back by your choice of countries. by the way, i was, as i started to hear you make your argument. i was wondering, i wonder what country he's going to picked and when you, when you pick paragraphs, printer. okay. random. why not? um, i did mention something in my story as i was writing the story and i was uh, briefing myself and doing my own research. i came across and obviously i googled you know, his standing in australia and when i, when i saw that that recent poll they did were almost 80 percent of the people in australia are saying he's one of us. he needs to be free. let this guy go. i think
11:44 am
maybe that and the fact that the parliament, the members of parliament got together and said they put out a call for him to be freed as well. don't you think damn, that may have moved this prime minister as well. a oh yeah, surely, course, i mean, yeah. and it moves uh buttons as well too because you know, and, and australia as part of the office alliance, the australia u. k. u. s. alliance. it's very important to us, very important to the, to the anti chinese constellation that's putting together. so therefore keeping the australians happy as a very high priority, as far as buying is concerned. uh so yeah, he wants to, uh, he wants to definitely definitely has to us drilling and public opinion on his mind . you know, i, i said i use the word cool at the end of my story. i did it for a reason. i chose that word very carefully. if you look at the world and especially the global self, any place, but maybe the united states, it's kind of cool to support julian assigned. it means you are right up. it means
11:45 am
you know what's going on. it means you stand for a sense of freedom in fairness, right? that and i, and i say that because it hurts me to say this because i'm an american. i love this country, but we are just so on. cool. we are not cool. it is cuz we don't get it. you stop on the street and ask americans about julian as long as you think he's some bank robbers, something. and then how do we get to this place and how do we change it and make data? i mean, i'll give both you guys a crack of this swell. i don't know how we change it. i mean, the problem is that the americans are incredibly propagandized by corporate mainstream media. and that's not changing any time soon. that's why people are getting this ridiculous message while the rest of the world is getting the truth. i mean, you know, americans are stupid. there's just brainwash. yeah. and it's like, i think if they get the, if they get the fax, they hear the fax then they'll arrive at the same conclusion. is everyone else? yeah, they're busy, they work. i mean, you've got to work
11:46 am
a lot of jobs in this country to be able to pay your bills. so you know, you just listen to whatever the hell, anderson cooper or sean hannity or some other idiot on the cable news tells you, and that's what you think the truth is. i mean, and i, and i guess that's where we are there. right? yeah. i mean, mer, america is an empire. uh, and, uh, and empires. um, you know, uh, uh, you know, export violence in a home. they keep their, their people, uh, poor and uninformed and uh, and propaganda propagandized as a texas. uh so the, you know, the americans have little ideas going on on the world except when their sons and daughters are sent off to war. and they have little idea of who julia size is and they figure that, you know, if the government says a bad guy, then who are they to say otherwise. uh and the democrats, by the way, had been as bad as this, if not worse, in the read. yeah. book ins. okay. yeah. the, it was done by new quote in the high tech terrorist that hillary clinton was,
11:47 am
you know, part of the lynch mob. and the democrats spent years trying to pin the get the crime of russian collusion on him. that was, that was a major part of the, uh, the muller report. uh, it was completely untrue. there is no evidence whatsoever that he was that the russians said him information that was the weakest part of the muller report, but his reputation has been stained and he'll never outlive it. it's been astonishing by ted rall and uh and then um, we thank you for taking us through this part when we come back. so here's what i want to do. i want to start breaking down the case. what are the chances that this will see to fruition? joining us on his actual freedom, we're gonna talk about that on the other side. stay right there. do not go away the,
11:48 am
the 1st time in history. meantime country's culture has been cancelled. the very modern weapons cancel, a culture they need to ask will see in my life. so the, the trunk is just me sitting on a it will put the clue. the phrase now particularly refers to counseling russian culture. and yet the worst it could be up, see what was the zip code where you might have folks to porterville renewal for this chart is phillips that go with it, cuz i most of the, some of that, one of them eat the moist blood rushes created the pos 1500 years, there's no question actually condemned, reviled and reject it to sit alone and use that to put somebody at the middle of the panel. there's a lot, i don't know because i don't know apology does. okay, so the little some of the list joining total condemnation gross daily and now
11:49 am
includes just asking you to call skate and assess the coverage that i need to. yeah, that was quick enough, but yeah, she utilized a few things that would just be done with you. i'm gonna use the key what is part of the the employee would post that isn't the defense you of us and that in the word? or is it something deeper, more complex might be present good. let's stop without cases. let's go out of
11:50 am
the so the news is that the present united states when asked if he would consider this uh, this request from the australian government to finally just enough is enough. let join us on the go, the president of united states that and we quote, we're considering that makes it almost sound like he had already had a previous discussion about it. or maybe not. i mean, god bless them and we're talking about the, you know, a president to sometimes look like he's barely awake and we're all going to get there because he's all right. so as i watched the video, i wasn't quite short test and starting with you if, if you're good enough to join instead of and then both. what do you think the biden is really enthusiastic about doing this? or do you think he even knows the case?
11:51 am
do you think he's cool enough to get it? and do you think he's going to see this through as well to buttons? not going to be able to really buy any pool or the cool part that's right, that's not gonna ever have the ticket. all grandpa dad, even even if he releases assigns and goes out partying with them, i just don't think that's going to be making cool. but i do think he's aware of it as ministrations. obviously, on top of this, i would take this very seriously. i'd bare minimum, it's a gas like sort of like when he came out in favor of gay marriage and when he was vice president under obama, and then they kind of have to make it so. so i'm very optimistic here. nothing is a 100 percent, but i would say it's a, it's a very much better chance than 50 percent. that julian is gonna get reunited with his wife and, and child after this in due course. which way overdue is discussing. that would be
11:52 am
really clear that he didn't deserve a single 2nd. yeah. behind bars. he didn't come across. is there a possibility there? cuz i think sometimes get orchestrated and we don't even know about this, but they do. i mean, there's a possibility that someone in the obama, pardon the, the, the, the by president, by the signs you put a bomb on my head. president button staff picked one of these reporters as joseph favor. ask this question. if he's gonna give you an answer as quite, i've seen this done, i come, i, this is a business i, i come from. so they, they plant the story, he answers it because they want it to get this in the news. that's a possibility. could be a possibility, he didn't ask the question the president did understand them, and it gave them a cogent answer. there's also the possibility, in fact, that mr. barton didn't understand the question, but just said were considering it because that's what they tell them to say to all the questions. so them a b or c that i know i think it's,
11:53 am
i think is bonafide. i think he heard the question, i think is his answer made sense? i think it's worth taking its face value. i think that button is considering this, so it's a good sign. it's a very hopeful sign that maybe uh, maybe the persecution of a of joint massage may be finally coming to an end. i think i've, i agree with ted, there's every reason for optimism and you look at joe biden. he's, he's facing a brutal campaign. yeah. you know, he's, he's neck and neck with uh, with um, with donald trump and, uh, and he's got a lot of things going against them in the last thing he needs is some kind of huge lean, messy trial in which they, they, hillary and torture. some highly i deal with dick reporter. yeah. that's the last thing he needs about the internet and about the us as militaristic track record, which happens to be right now in the news both and gaza avenue. great. so let's go
11:54 am
ahead and heighten the very thing which is making people not like you, right? yeah, you know, so, so as you know, this whole, your con, more monitoring military, you know, b, s, i mean, it just doesn't play well any more. people are sick and tired of this kind of rhetoric of at a high tech terror, terrorist at a time when the us are supplying is real with 2000 pounds of bunker, buster bombs, you know, that that's real terrorism. you know, so the, you know, it just, the optics are really, really bad. so, you know, and i think even joe biden realizes the okay through fair what, it's just it, what i see him sometimes. i'm not sure he's all there. and by the way, sometimes i'm not all there. so we're, we all have moments like that. so it's not just to pick on the president buddy as an older man. fine. let's talk about the case the of the holding in this case, dan will stay with you and you write a lot about legal stuff. do you believe that there really is from a legal standpoint, looking at this case down the road that there's
11:55 am
a possibility that within the next weeks, months, whatever that we will see those come to fruition and take us through how that happens. and i was, i saw as far as i know, it's very simple. i mean the, the us simply with this to inform the british that they have no desire to extra dice assigns any more. and that idea for he's free to go or that could be so kind of deal worse on, you know, i would agree to, to leave for, for australia. that's probably the likely this outcome i'm but you know, as ted pointed out a size um, he didn't commit his crimes on us territory. yeah. he was in europe the entire time . he was, uh, you know, it's, it really is like picking up uh, you know, you know, to using, you know, one of us, of violating a paraguay in a security law. and it just makes no sense. but what it is, is the us is not paraguay, the us is the global headroom on. and therefore when it says, you know, jump everybody, uh, you know,
11:56 am
asked how high with the brakes use us very small number of acceptance. so is there any reason why that is, is there any way that there could be some kind of obstacle to this? i'll give you an example. the british say, you know what, know we're, we're going to hold them a little longer. could they hold up a little longer? do we know the answer to any of these questions? i think suite is done with them. they dropped those, those, those rape charges that were there several years back. but could somebody else come forward and say no, hold on. we're going to stop this. i do this thing i've had so many stops and starts. you know, pardon me for not being optimistic, but i'm just wondering, is there anything else that going to happen out there a dead? well, me see radically, anything's possible. maybe he like double parked one time when he was on vacation room parents. the thing for him to be the rental car bill, but you know, as far as we know, there's no jurisdiction. as you pointed out, the, you know, the, the, the scandinavian, sorry, i'm lucky for him anymore. and it seems pretty clear that you know,
11:57 am
that the sort of as a corollary to what them said about us being ahead of them on the us wants him to go home to australia. then he's going to go home to australia, even on the stream, the unlikely chance, and someone else wants to take him into custody. what about australia? is there a possibility? they're going to know, i can't see them doing anything other than having a parade when he gets there right. then i would imagine not. i mean, i don't know that could be so kind of a deal where he's i didn't, i don't know, i'm speculating, house arrest some kind of, uh, additional penalty slap and the rest of us trillion government may choose to apply . i really have no idea, but i sorry, i might hope that he goes home. he's re reunited with his family. he gives, you know, he's a, goes out in the lecture circuit. he rides the best selling book. that'd be the greatest outcome possible. do you both agree that the united states might want, might be inclined to do this because the united states right now just needs
11:58 am
a when they need something that doesn't make them look as horrible as they look right now in the eyes of the world. and especially the global south community, either one of you, i think it's more about likes, it's not a when it, this is about damage control of the julian a, something it's been a fiasco. it's been a thorn in the side of the bible ministration since day one. really, truly, i mean, even for donald trump, there were expectations of he would have let a song go and pardon him in the waiting days isn't ministration. but of course, he was distracted tremendously by january 6th and subsequent impeachment. so i think this is about on doing a bad thing. you can't score when you're a good day, murray. doctor de paul van. uh, 30 seconds you get the last word a good. so i was just want to point out that the, the us as really disgraced itself. but boy has a saw,
11:59 am
has gone through the ringer. i mean, this guy has an yeah, not by the most powerful country and the on honor as he has been physically harmed, he's mentally harmed. it's been extraordinary one man against an empire. he's amazing to us. right. yeah. he is, it is an amazing story. it will make a hell of a buck and a hell of us and a hell of a movie. my, thanks to both of you. thank you, dan. thank you, ted, for your wisdom and the conversation. so here's what we do. and before we go, we want to remind you of our mission simple, really, we try to do this. this showed you basically the side of the world. try not to live in little boxes where we all think, as we're told, or as we think, we have to say truths. don't live in little box is needed to we. that's what we base our show on. i'm rick sanchez. this is the director of the
