10:30 pm
[000:00:00;00] the, so here's what happens uh, that even shocked me to a certain mixed up yesterday. so present a button comes out, right? the steps up to the microphone and he announces this historic piece deal. and i'm thinking, oh my god, this is important, right? he's got a new piece deal that he's announcing, and he says, israel has agreed to it. he kind of stumbles his way through it. you know, as he often does. but in the book the i'm thinking you got to give this guy credit . this is a powerful message, israel as now offering israel is offer a comprehensive new proposal to roadmap to an enduring cease fire and release of all hostages. the united states has work. relentless support is really security, get you monitoring supplies and the guys to get a ceasefire. and
10:31 pm
a hostage deal to bring this work to and, and bring this for to an end. right. i mean, wow, impressive, i'm sitting here thinking this guys finally pulled it off right there. you have it . the president, the united states, telling the world of israel has agreed to a deal that would end this, this massacre of palestinians that we've been seeing if true. this is an enormous step in the right direction. and it's going to show that mister biden and the united states still have some clout, some power over the government of a bean and yahoo despite what we've seen up to now. right? right, right. maybe not so much because then what happened gets really weird. stay with me here. israel's prime minister beeping that's in yahoo, who's been asked to respond to this deal? right. oh, my god, mister prime minister apparently you and mister button had this deal where you're going to there's things going to come doing it. you know,
10:32 pm
want to be met and you know, says one is aspect what deals, what deals this get suddenly here's the headline, put it up. nothing. yahoo rejects biden's peace plan. it's being called a snob. so he is really, government says, no, we got no deal with us with you, mr. biden or the us. and that's, and you know, once again seems to be telling the white house what it will or will not do. and he said they're basically saying, look, we're not working on the us as terms you have no right to come in here or do a peace deal for us or announce a peace deal on your terms. and they do this, of course, despite using us funding and us weapons to do so. so let me give you some of the background here. nothing. yeah. who called the biden plan, a non starter? no way that he's going to agree to it. and then he goes on to say that israel's gonna stay the course and continue. it's
10:33 pm
a tax on gaza targeting rafa. i should mention that part of the reason for the net and yahoo snob has to do. and this is, may be fair to him, to be fair to mister netanyahu. his cabinet is saying, if you take this deal with bite and then we're going to force you out. so look, manila, it seems to me i made maybe i should ask as a question, doesn't that mean that the us prestige them the power, the credibility of our government of washington is being determined by a couple of guys were running the shots and he is really work cabinet telling me nothing. y'all what he can get do who then tells the present united states what he can or can't do? so definitely moving back. i think. i think it's worse. i think it's worse than that. i think maybe nathan, yahoo was like joe joe who, who said what the last. i think this is yet another case of the bite ended ministration. hearing what they want to hear they are are the best spacemen in the
10:34 pm
world in their own heads. we've heard consistently throughout this war that how moss has been wanting to negotiate. it's, it's always been is rarely side that insist on foraging on with this mission emission in which they have failed to identify the ultimate goal. why didn't desperately need to win right now, rick? anywhere he can get it. we just saw that that a $300000000.00, temporary naval peer or just fall apart after a gust of yeah and blew through. i also heard a kids kite was lost in that natural disaster. this is yet another bush style mission accomplished banner on the big navy carrier bite and put this put in his mouth. so off and read that the media won't even make anything of this because you know, they can't keep out. no, no, no, you're absolutely right. bed. and you also right. and i think one of the most important points that you just made is something that we may be haven't reported enough. there have now been several occasions were from us. i'm no fan of homeless
10:35 pm
. okay. but how boss is said we're willing to give you the hostages. we're willing to call a truce. let's sit down and talk about it. and it's is real and let them know who is government. who said, hell no, we don't want to be a part of it. no, we want to continue bombing the gaza and rafa and the palestinians who are there right? 36000 people are dead at this point. meanwhile, me, what's the goal? what exactly? that's that's, that's the question. meanwhile, in this crazy world where the white house is supporting a country that is killed, 36000 people, 98 percent of those by the way, are civilians including women and children. the u. s. is now punishing hard. wait for it. cuba. that's right. cuba. the us is keeping cuba on the list of countries that are quote, sponsors of terrorism. so, why am i mentioning this yesterday? cubans minister of foreign relations question. the move, noting that unlike is real, he was willing to cooperate fully. he says with the us state department and then
10:36 pm
a tweet, the name, the countries are now coming to campus defense. so let me take you through this. here they are. these are the countries in the region who are asking the us to take cuba off the terrace, lest mexico on doris, olivia police, dominica, nicaragua, g lake, venezuela, columbia, and brazil. now if you're wondering why cuba is even on the list in the 1st place, which is a good question, this goes back to when cuba invited both sides of the civil war in columbia to a peace deal in atlanta a summer. right? the deal fell through and then some of the columbia and rumbles stay behind. cuba gave them asylum. columbia said you shouldn't do that. we want them extradited, cause right, who knows? but when cuba refused columbia, and the us accused nevada of harboring terrorist, and that's why they say now to this day that cuba is somehow a state sponsor of terrorism around the world. look, criticizing q before it's 400 domestic policy over the years. that's fair. and people should do that. i think there's plenty to criticize. and many cubans would
10:37 pm
agree for the us state department to call to a terrorist country at this point in time with washington's recent track record seems not quite a bit. maybe even almost 3 hardy. you tell me, and you know, what bothers me about this as a person who was born in cuba, who as family in cuba, over the years, the people were paying the price for this us designation of the people of cuba. they've lost their right to compete in the open market. they can't trade, they can't, but they can't borrow. they can exchange good with the outside world, which means they don't have the benefit of a fair playing field because they're being blackballed by us. politicians is mostly for political reasons and by the state department. when you consider iraq, afghanistan, syria, and what's happening now and gaza, this terrorism designation against cuba. it seems like exactly the type of thing that's only gonna further engage the global south community to call into question
10:38 pm
the foreign policy decisions that come out of washington these days and their credibility. i mean, and by the way, i do think that's a big deal. no, it's not so much about cuba. it's about people seeing the united states policy toward cuba going while you're picking on cuba. i mean, really? yeah, i mean worth noting, rick, it's, it's not just latin american countries chime in on this either late last week. china weighed in the foreign ministry spokesman mountain being said at a press briefing in beijing, but quote, china firmly opposes us interference into both internal affairs under the pretext of counter terrorism. yeah, she went on to condemn, continued us political suppression and economic sanctions against the island. and on top of that rec, it's mixed signals coming from the state department just last month. tony blinking and made a public statement to remove cuba from its short list of countries that they deem
10:39 pm
what they call less than fully cooperative in the way of counterterrorism, saying on, on may 15 that cuban and us law enforcement were again working together on counterterrorism. and other efforts, so i don't know how we squared this rep. i mean on the one hand, they say 2 but is a state sponsor of terror on the other. they say cuba is helping cooperating and just feeling terror. yeah. hard. it's hard to sift through but important to point out. and i think it's one of those things that once again goes right to the global south community that we often talk about. and speaking of the global south community guests, which listen to this, which made a country is suggesting it wants to join bricks, bricks, turkey, turkey is, foreign minister says his country wants to join the bricks. group of nations. bricks isn't an acronym that represents, as many of you know, to watch are newscast association of the 5 major emerging economies in the world,
10:40 pm
brazil, russia, india, china, and south africa. but since they've been joined, as you probably know, as well by many, many other countries, in fact, everybody wants in. it seems like foreign minister of turkey con for don said he cannot ignore the fact that bricks is an import. cooperate, pardon a cooperation platform that offers country is a good alternative to western thinking. now, manila, this is almost in comprehensible. imagine a top member of nato, with, with one of the biggest armies in europe by the way, turkey, us military base their in their country joining brooks. i mean, i'm not sure this is going to happen and then we're certainly not saying it. well, we're just saying this guys come out and said we're interested. but just to mention that a country inside nato as big as turkey wants to either flip to the other side or be, or, or play on both teams. that's, that's big. that's not where the that's newsworthy. that's something to pay
10:41 pm
attention to. well rick, i, i like in this to a dating analogy because really for policy is a lot like dating. i know you've been married a long time. i'm married too. but if we, if we think back, if you consider that turkey has long chased after the you and the u. s. flirted back sometimes giving mix signals. turkey continues to get courted by the you, through the nato club, that they go to. yeah, right. well, turkey has been waiting for our reading for a long time, but the you never puts a ring on it. so now there's this new guy in town named bricks. yeah, all the girls are blushing because chris just had the magical summer we're really came out of puberty for any suddenly looking sexy. and now turkey is, is i am bricks, but ultimately i think it's just to make that huge yellow. and the boys and girls at the nato club there talk to. so ultimately, i think turkey would date, brooks,
10:42 pm
but wouldn't really, i think, really only wants the ring from the you and keep going. club nato. i like it. you're, you're making me blush because it reminds me of how i got my wife or maybe she got me. i don't know. it was somewhere in the problem. the land in her new land in her way, took her off the bar, could put a ring on it, put a ring on it. that's a great, that's rice and well done. that's only only you good manila. thank you so much. when we come back, by the way, speaking of briggs, there's an election in south africa that could spin that very important country in a completely different direction, possibly away from the global south. so now we're talking about this going in the other direction. we're going to be talking to clayton sala, he's a reporter with the african stream. as a pan africa, media outlet. and we've got a lot to learn when it comes to africa and certainly south africa, which is certainly been receiving and share of news lately. we will be right back. don't go away. of
10:43 pm
the the take a fresh look around his life. kaleidoscopic isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power to division with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills. and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented as 1st? can you see through their illusion going underground? can the see the silver so the somebody
10:44 pm
how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of munitions and military equipments. destroyed no pain. the boy passed no, great, and moody elbow in your system and below came along the nominal facility or some of those other slash we, i'm about to the easiest and the easiest on bottom of the solar. well, nice thing is to have gone on the why are weapons from ukraine spreading over the world? to turn this country into a major arms hub, will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them occasionally use that they need to defend their country. the everyone knows very well that we don't sell but known as pineapples or any kind of children's toys. we sell women. yes, we're also known in the world as homes dealers that we must not be ashamed of them
10:45 pm
the the hey, welcome back. i'm rick sanchez. let's talk about something that we should talk about more often, i think joining us now as a journalist who covers up african politics. recently, he wrote this about the country's recent elections with the prospect of the
10:46 pm
a and c being maybe voted out about the rights. there are 4 or 5 black individuals in the african national congress who are given massive shares of white phone companies. so the companies look like they're at the forefront of an economic transformation. joining us here as clinton sala. he joins me now. uh from uh, nairobi. he rides for african stream and he's good enough to spend some time with us clinton. thanks so much for being with us. i think you're like, it's a pleasure to be here. let's start with what you write based on the fact that look, i'll just give you my perspective as an american, right? or as a citizen of the world, really when, when you think of the amc, nelson mandela, the strong gold headlines, an institution that seem to change the world at the time and, and what you're writing and what i'm reading and what many people are perceiving
10:47 pm
with this election, is that the a n c a b a n c? it used to be right? you? yeah, correct. so i think it will help to control the transition. and so that happened. we should remember that's a part they did a because they're white. so that becomes fully funded, realize that people, they've, what the part they ended because they couldn't make plans in there. so that's kind of going on with the lights that i paid was by to be this, the cultural has been sanctioned, less than one. right. so why they do they decide that they would need to transition to black governments? well, i just felt a 10 minute penny that joining us when they come to me. so walk me through that in the list a to a pub, of what business me there most by the executives from the american corporation, which of the time was probably the biggest. my income is one day to african continent. mm hm. they struggled to via web and see what was busy next though. and the next is the preventative while we mix up, cause they had come to the in addition that i've taught,
10:48 pm
they do not use our stage for more than 20. and so they needed to make contact with the people they saw that they were going to be in charge of the economy after the collapse of apostage, literally sort of from the context you had, people like, shoot, i'm a post on, i'm to run a little project for 50 of the coming close to the cup to the see if i can quote him, that's fine. those white companies both dropped it in not a significant amount of shift because black can be just pulled, reinvented as it will be. black people, if they call me back to the doctor, says it was it will them for the testing that be listed under the new government where they wanted to match what to say that businesses would not be touched by the in the government. and that's what was the beginning of the industry for $84.00 your shuttle going to vision. trying to get a vision where the g is lots collision for, it's more in the subject or they were more of it. so rather than being the organic movement,
10:49 pm
we all thought it was for the organic movement that it eventually turned into. i think what we ended up with was let me just say it. you tell me if i'm over using this word, corrupt it what, what do you have to describe is corrupted when you're doing something for purposes other than helping the people of your country and you're taking money or taking business opportunities. you're basically corrupting your organization now. yeah, 100 percent of the money? i think i talked to that in the quarter up sounds like i'm on the meet, you talk to the not be they have a good middle if we have the cortex, no limits. so this is, that is where we and so if it is select group of individuals become mouse, i need your name, product, and some of them that will be provided be on there while i different than most of the people who enjoy get protected or but, but these people who are short on the fees via living conditions, probably middle, almost the same in the past. got the dickens as,
10:50 pm
as i hear you say that i've been thinking, if the and see loses these elections, which it sounds like. that's the direction that we're heading toward. then who will uh, form the new government and, and what kind of individuals are those? so this is the, i mean, the lexus of the head, the results of the non so announced the n. c port less than and uh, 50 percent its while the boards a number that is needed for them to form governments. so what, what that implies is that the n c one needs to go into i'm alliance with another political party to form government. so they diverted critical position, quote, the only other parts of it can going to and the last week he said that they couldn't mix, we don't fight, does, which is a big, it broke our from the n c in 2014. so it is that part of which is very fun, africa i'm. she's also very much lift just like i mix it in the mines,
10:51 pm
which include the additional additional bit mines. i'm also each ones that have central but close enough to got should be nation. i like it was a once the they, they did it that way. a truck submission of the economy. i live at the mass which then still struggle to reach because it's such a fun to do the business community inside pickup and also to the international business committee. who are likely not going to allow the industry to take the vision then the other to do that. it is the have, if a democratic colors not a democratic island is a white legs party. that's the domain. i'm guessing most of the sports from the white community. so these parts and you said park to wherever they, they started for business community or sheet for this model or the end of the democratic colors. so and so they kind of his mother's yet if, if that happens and, and pardon me, i didn't mean interrupt. i thought you were finished with that thought, if that happens most especially the lighter that you just described, where most of the folks who are part of the old white establishment kind of get
10:52 pm
back and power will, will they then get away from the global south thinking that we've seen themself have forgotten fact south africa is about a breakfast. i mean they're the ones who are leading the push away from the monetization efforts in the western ideology that we see in the london and washington and moving toward russia, china india, china. i think i said trying to twice, but the middle east for example, what, what's gonna happen to that movement that's taking south africa away from western ideology and moving more towards global self ideology. if this were to happen that you describe when this government is formed. so if it was to happen it to mean if it took to central position from basically because what the democrats of color that good stuff or on the rest of the country did the text color, size of the initial unrestricted one. the impression of it was wrong. the
10:53 pm
democratic i asked is sorted, leave behind is well, if, if draws direly, political movements, lots of come up strongly interest opportunities out there, black and busted into decisions, the decision detectives are to evaluate the data. so that's why it is very difficult to tribute to think of the 2 political buttons missing halfway. because even though the local front, the democratic, i am so poor goods or a police inspector, n c has page 2 payments drawn from the corner. we could get like people to participate much when they quoted me. they've got a point of score drug disney. we're going to be compartment also the point is where the nc i've tried to turn some more like the black hands close at the moment. white, so nothing comes on more than a civil district, a central belonged to the country. this is just part of the mix, the defense of the population. so the n c have yeah. yeah, it sounds vast the, i mean, it sounds like they hate each other as much as republicans and democrats hate each other in general here in the united states, except when you're talking about corruption and foreign policy,
10:54 pm
then they all come by. i agree with each other, but it sounds like there's a real disparity here. i guess my question to you as we start to wrap up this interview is what i know you're not as to say or you can't predict the future. but do you think that we're going to be heading in that direction where a party that is the polar opposite of what the south african government has been doing for the last year will take shape to so i think is i'm a pull. so i need to use garbage and drop off the supports. i live in 50 bucks the last you're actually going professional position called these parts. these many weaknesses. the n t i book a robust, you cannot get hooked up. so if middle by my lions, which triggered your movements, the confidence of so that's a continuance. and then also if i know last week this, i don't think i'm coming to sparks. so i think they look within the movement is for the most democratic moments,
10:55 pm
they have one of paul's in outlining between the democratic colors and the i want to pause cause the democratic alliance has been calling for this property. well, the name of which is i don't think so that means how much it's i don't think it's the kind of by the democratic alliance of the say that's the, by the. yeah. to give you things for the democratic. i like, are you trying to get books or what? cuz right, it's been a n c and use composition. doug, what's the trade in? get a lot of support from the trade union movement in south africa. so to be clear, you think the amc by maneuvering positioning and who knows what else will be able to somehow form some kind of coalition that keeps enough power on its side. so that the ideology of the country be governance or better yet the thinking that comes out of the hottest part doesn't flip is that what i'm hearing you say exactly, but they would do that. not because a lot of people,
10:56 pm
but people that think they fear they back to us to the citizens on some internal functions within the n c. cause that if they are to boost on the left, the democratic alas, that going to be seen as sitting out part where some individuals in that practice of 2 of the properties. so most likely that's what you're going to rate in the, in 6 out of 2 people. that's, that's amazing. and the fact that you have such a grasp of this and have been able to take us through it and, and help us here in the united states and around the world to understand something which seems so complex is really remarkable. and it's a credit to you and your skills as a journalist and as a writer. thank you. clinton for taking time to join us today and for taking us through this. we appreciate it. thank you so much. i hope to make a note of that be on some of the well we very much like having you on and we hope to see you again. and that's our show. remember, as you know,
10:57 pm
we always say one of my idioms around here is always look outside your own box. choice don't live in boxes. sometimes you have to go to nairobi or south africa to find the truth. i'm rick sanchez. we'll see you again next time. the, the, the, the rabbit collapse of the ottoman empire gave the arabs hold for independence. but the colonial power saw their future differently. great britain and france agreed on
10:58 pm
the seizure of the arab lands under the guise of the so called mandate of the league of nations. this bible play caused particular indignation in a rack, which was to get under the control of the british. in may 1921 rest with claim for independence broke out, both assuming and that she took part in it. soon the rallies turned into a real uprising against the invaders. more than 130000 people took up arms. britons urgently began to transfer reinforcements to a rack and used aircraft radius war secretary, winston churchill birds, the use of chemical weapons against the rebels. and general ser, i am are held a border the destruction of any village where weapons were found. burning a village properly takes a long time, an hour or more according to size paulding recalled cynically and his memoirs,
10:59 pm
the mediaeval cruel de paid off. the revolt was crushed, however, separate his empire had to make serious concessions. in 1921, it recognized bustle. the 1st, as the king of a rag time gave part of the power to representatives of the local population via racket. revolt marked the beginning of the national consolidation of the country and became an important milestone on the way to final independence. oh or the same rom just don't have to shape out the application and engagement trails. when so many find themselves will support we choose to look for common ground.
