so you want to turn to the old waving her to make a single switch in the mill stone hotel some old country house full of am the fool goldman's house the regrets this room that used to feel the montague the child the world the ribbons herself. from washington d.c. to new york city americans are jumping for joy over the killing of osama bin ladin even though he's dead isn't the war on terror still very much alive. this is bigger than the moon landing this is you this is just an amazing moment for the country. while the us mainstream media celebrates bin lot of the countries around the world consider other terrorists their big threat so who is the us to say the world's most wanted terrorist is dead. right when governors right wing politicians
4:01 pm
are trying to make as a company a country of the corporations by the corporations for the corporations so is that why may day is a holiday all around the world except here in the us both to look at unions right in a country where they are slowly disappearing. it is monday may second four pm in washington d.c. i'm christine frizz out here watching our team. there's some story today osama bin laden the leader of al qaeda has been killed the announcement came down late last night by president obama who said the killing was a result of a targeted operation launched by the u.s. military but a small group of navy seals stormed bin laden's compound in of on about pakistan killing him and a few others inside this was followed almost immediately by crowds gathering to celebrate from ground zero in new york to round out the white house here in
4:02 pm
washington. celebration and jubilation over a mission that has been in the works for nearly ten years some argue or some have been long was wanted even before the attacks of september eleventh around the u.s. today newspaper headlines interpreted the action in the miami herald simply glad he's dead the l a times also said simply u.s. kills bin laden and then there's an interesting one the new york post which said got him vengeance at last u.s. nails the bastard well many see this action as a major step and symbol in the global terror crisis but as our season is now reports even though we're live in is dead the fight against terror is far from over . command wanted dead or alive for a decade is gone the united states has conducted an operation that killed osama bin
4:03 pm
laden was you can hear some of the cheering going on right here from some it was a moment of victory for others a moment of the barest meant president obama is in fact it was a u.s. strategic i'm sorry but there's one moment analysts say should not be overlooked osama bin laden may be dead but the threat of terror is very much alive frankly doesn't make much of a difference the bin laden is dead people here working in still long run at least for the last two years to be very convinced that the al qaida figures or people in this region who by the way can not number more than one hundred are incapable of carrying out a major attacks instead it's russia now kind of linked terrorists that have made the most recent remarks metro blast an airport bombing two of the latest school attacks masterminded by domestic turchin terror leader doku more of three years has
4:04 pm
been trying to mr bin laden's role as the face of international terrorism. leaders demise is expected to remain a significant symbol now having little or no effect in the fight against terrorism and could create waves elsewhere you know two thousand and one right. george bush's approval rating was around fifty percent within twenty four hours and shot up to ninety percent so watch for obama to get a little bump from this and now of course an opening has been made for the new face of evil first it was a sudden and with russian federation and in some of the larger hussein and the news of course we have more on the. next one income or step in whenever the rises. i was actually correspondent a nice and now way well much of the world is of course reacting to this including leaders from around the world afghan president hamid karzai use this incident as an
4:05 pm
opportunity to say this is proof that his country afghanistan is in fact not the center of terrorism he said quote osama bin laden was found in pakistan i call on nato to stop destroying our houses stop our women and children it's a free being echoed by some and shunned by others are he spoke to james corbett to get his take on what happens next and what this could mean. it's not my contention that osama bin laden death and definitively has been dead for some time but that he has been his death has been announced a number of times at any rate and and i don't see why we should take this pronouncement any more seriously than any of the previous pronouncements especially considering the complete and utter lack of evidence that has so far been produced to show that osama bin laden or anyone resembling that description was actually killed yesterday but i think it's important to understand the announcement that occurred yesterday not through the lens of the announcement of the death of some
4:06 pm
terrorist mastermind so much as retirement party for a known cia asset along the lines of lee harvey oswald back in november one thousand nine hundred eighty three and i think harvey oswald was probably the best analog for osama bin laden as someone who did not have the means motive or opportunity to do what he allegedly did not only killing president kennedy but also waltzing in and out of the soviet union at the height of the cold war after having been working at the top secret city air force base with no questions asked and using money that he didn't have at the time in the same way we see osama bin laden being the rogue elements of the bin laden family of construction fortune who of course has deep ties to be of texas and of course the bush family so we see some of that a lot and of course having deep ties to the american intelligence establishment so i see this more as a ploy of the cia getting rid of one of their old assets whether he actually did die yesterday or he's been dead for years or whatever the case and he this is
4:07 pm
simply discarding the war on terror bogeyman who is no longer scaring the populace ok so you have your point of view about what went on today and certainly are entitled to that but what do you think this will be about the presidential elections coming up twenty twelve is around the corner do you think that obama can claim this as a victory leading into a reelection campaign. there's certainly no doubt that this is going to give a market boost to the obama people rally around the flag as they usually do and for going to. it's like this so i think this is going to have a positive effect in invalid way and also it it once again you know acutely injurious to the public in your is the public i should say to the idea of extra judicial assassinations just days after those attempted to assassinate gadhafi and ended up killing his son and grandchildren once again we see another type of extra judicial assassination going on which of course is an international war crime in this case it's ok because it's the bogeyman that everyone loves to hate so once
4:08 pm
again makes it ok and you know it's in the public so with a person like me in the law and one way or another out of the picture at this point what do you think is the future of terror. well i think at this point it's for anyone who has been paying attention over the last ten years it's been quite obvious but i can't see how the. perpetrators of the war of terror can any longer pretend that terrorism itself is actually some sort of enemy combatant with consists of some sort of army led by some sort of shadowy mastermind in a cave in the hills of afghanistan so much as it is simply a word that means anything that is opposed to us all of our global interests but it's more than just that i mean there is terrorist strike in russia right now those doku umarov doing his occasional action here in various terrorism going on in the middle east i mean it's not something that something struck in the united states or something that's purely instigated by the the west no one denies that there are terrorists and there are real terrorist events but i think the spectacular types of terror against that we've seen for example on nine eleven and on seven seven and
4:09 pm
certain other terror attacks have been allowed and or puppets here and or perpetrated by western intelligence agencies and i think absolutely osama bin laden and the al qaeda narrative has been an important part of that when you go back to the one nine hundred eighty s. with afghanistan and the roots of al qaeda you see that osama bin laden was directly supplied by the u.s. who were selling his men arms at a reduced rates in the one nine hundred ninety s. the you have f.b.i. whistle blower sibylla edmonds testifying that the information that she had at the f.b.i. indicated that in london was working hand in glove with the u.s. intelligence establishment throughout the nineteen one thousand nine hundred and you have been testifying that when he worked at the jet a consulate in the one nine hundred eighty s. he was giving the terrorists to you know just a known terrorist in order to bring them into the u.s. for training at u.s. military bases so at every possible opportunity you see how these types of organizations are helped along. by people who have ties to the you know western
4:10 pm
intelligence establishment and that was largely correspondent match president in an interview with james corbett editor are required to report. also now that osama bin laden is dead many are wondering who sacrifice well we want to take a look at some of the others who are vying for the title i want although we're hearing wanted for murder of u.s. nationals outside the u.s. and also for his direct involvement in the bombings of the united states and the seas in dar es salaam tanzania and kenya we've got anwar a lock you earlier this year early muslims residing in the u.s. to attack their own country i've not goals are el shukrijumah a high ranking member of al qaida former resident of florida who speaks perfect english and is not by many to be the field commander for the next terrorist attack on u.s. soil and then out of the dawn born in oregon grew up in southern california he has appeared in numerous al qaeda videos and has threatened violence against his home country he remains also on the f.b.i.'s list of most wanted terrorists now many
4:11 pm
people today calling osama bin laden the quote world's most wanted terrorist the let's not forget we're only one country and while osama bin laden was our most wanted terrorist if you go other parts of the world there are others considered are more important to them for example in russia those whom are he is said to have ordered the moscow airport bombing that took place earlier this year injuring nearly two hundred people also killing thirty six he is also said to be behind last year's bombings in the cities metro in which thirty nine people died and for those living in india there osama good ones are named move on a lawsuit us are hafiz most ominous i need and they would need rahim also in china abdul hakim has said been said by some to have been killed but many others say that has not been confirmed he wanted in china. so it's certainly important to remember that and look a little differently depending on where you're standing and even in the wake of the
4:12 pm
bin laden killing u.s. cia director leon panetta reminded his staff in a memo quote bin laden is dead al qaeda is not so let's talk about some of the bigger implications and also take a different look for that i'm joined by radio host alex jones in texas alex i want to get your take on some of the different aspects of this first of all you know i got to ask was this simply retaliation for war crimes of the past or you know do you think osama bin laden was still a threat to the united states. well yes as a that minute. officer commanded large brigades of mujahideen during the one nine hundred eighty s. during the russian afghan war he was a danger because the cia basically is a private mercenary spy grid and enforcement rid of the private central banks i mean you showed earlier for the number one you know main people the u.s. is after all four of them were trained by the u.s.
4:13 pm
military protected adam gadahn grandad ran the a.d.l. he's known as you know adam the american you had emira lock even the pentagon admits secretly hanging out the secretary of the army while he's on the news is number two under bin laden running the underwear bombing running the fort hood shooter he's a double agent who runs the mentally ill patsies i mean i've interviewed the people that are on the plane with the underwear bomber from amsterdam to detroit and they saw the u.s. government helping get the underwear bomber who looked drugged out of his mind on the plane and i reported that a month and a half. before the state department on said yes we were ordered by an unnamed u.s. intelligence agency to get the underwear bomber on the plane and that was in the detroit free press so the issue here is who's sama bin ladin according to two white house sources and i'm on record with this and another state department source and we have one of the names is public in two thousand and two saying he died he's
4:14 pm
frozen literally frozen and that he would be rolled out in the future it someday in madeleine albright in two thousand and three and sort of walter cronkite and mrs kerry heinz kerry said yes we've been told by intelligence they've got him bush may roll email but because they expose that in the election they didn't do it i have been told directly by former bush administration officials when he was in office here in austin many of them live here but this was going on very high level and one of the names is public of the former deputy. secretary of state under kissinger came on my radio show in april two thousand and two the transcript of that is up on in force dot com and they had a photo that was fake that they showed us of him being dead and said oh it was fake sorry they threw him in the oceans nobody could see it i mean they may have thrown a ham sandwich in the arabian sea i'm going to growl is i mean let's talk about this i mean you're asserting that not only has not been long but the other four you
4:15 pm
know most wanted terrorist by the us have at some point in recent history been sort of in bed with her a little too close for comfort on wishing the ira with the u.s. government a couple questions about that you know what interest if osama bin laden it was in fact you know killed long before yesterday i don't understand why you think president bush wouldn't want that to be revealed and also you know why they would have decided eventually now to kill osama bin laden if he was indeed sort of working with the u.s. . well they had to introduce us first to amarillo lockheed publicly traded by the us military they had introduced us to dine and teach us to be scared of them to give our rights some of bin ladin was needed to be the boogie man and that's what we were in afghanistan and pakistan we were told was to give him only recently oh forget about some of bin laden and then they pull a rabbit out of the head and say we got rid of him at a time in pakistan saying get your troops and drones out here at
4:16 pm
a time when we're talking about extrajudicial assassination attempt against gadhafi which are illegal this is a way to sell it at a time when obama launches his presidential reelection at a time when panetta is going over to defense and betray us over the cia at a time that the afghan pakistan opium securitisation war is not going very well the american people after almost ten years are tired of it they needed to give us a big win and we won't call it feel good but sorry can't see his body we threw him in the ocean and oh we did show you a fake photo and there are some people who say that you know that photos were taken the videos were taken and that will be released in the coming days but i do want to switch gears a little bit and kind of widen this discussion out with operate under you know i thought in london yesterday and let's talk about good terrorists versus bad terrorists china for example thaw six chinese leaders as bad terrorists they were captured by the u.s. they were held for a while and one tunnel bay but then the u.s.
4:17 pm
sent them to polo where they were freed because it was believed that had they been returned to china they'd be killed so i guess my question to you as why can't countries like china kill their terrorists to. well that's a good point i mean a terrorist is anybody that doesn't lift the boot of the private central banks and because the internal police state needs an excuse to crack down on the public similar to that they are far beyond his own reichstag and thirty three to break down in the public. they if they need these outside threats but yes it's very critical we had them in the liberty dollar case a month ago the fed said that bernard von no house was a terrorist for bringing up silver coins publicly and so i mean basically a terrorist whatever the government says it is but it's foreign governments call people terrorists then a lot of times the u.s. government doesn't agree because once on a bill is really a training school for a lot of terrorist take since some of the people to leave the rebellion against
4:18 pm
gadhafi that are al qaeda they were held for years at guantanamo bay in other black sites and you know i want to of course lots of leaders around the world reacting to this we heard earlier president after president hamid karzai saying you know ok now let's take the focus off afghanistan we also heard this morning from secretary of state hillary clinton for the following up on this and she said let's remember you know that just because the time of in london is that there's still a lot more to come i want to play a little bit of what she had to say and i'll get your response. continued cooperation will be just as important in the days ahead because even as we mark this milestone we should not forget that the battle to stop al qaida and its syndicate of terror will not end with the death of bin ladin indeed we must take this opportunity to renew our resolve and redouble our efforts.
4:19 pm
what do you think alex renew our resolve and redouble our efforts what does this all mean i'm glad you brought this up it's not the only point i have time to make this is a lady whose it was basically co-president under bill clinton that when the monica lewinsky thing came out that he was lying he cruise missile an aspirin factory in africa just as a diversion saying it was terrorists so they used terrorism as as a diversion as a distraction and yes they are now hyping one hundred sixty nuclear bombs buried ball kind under federal buildings and that's like saying leprechauns have been you know bearing bombs totally made up to scare everybody and we'd all better let the t.s.a. stick their hands down our pants let the fellow reserve you value the dollar or you're going to let al qaeda get us and so it's basically like a swiss army knife of excuses to sell all this so they're grandstanding and fear mongering oh no al qaeda is going to hit us back now because we killed the cia asset you know interviewed the head of former pakistani intelligence they army google he thinks it's all fake most of the people in pakistan think it's fake
4:20 pm
they'll try it out a few people that believe all of this but this is just complete theater but we can't see the body they threw at the ocean i was going to jail is i mean you alluded to this a little bit about the secrecy aspect of this i mean there is a chance that photos and video will be released but right now there's simply a narrative there's a story and very little evidence what do you think about that. well i mean i have the washington post may twenty fifth two thousand and ten where they admitted the cia created fake a lot of videos i mean a lot about w m d's yellowcake the globalist that run our country attacked russian held areas of south of saudi and m.k. shia and said russia did it for two days and then it turned out it was a hoax i mean these people these people are off the charts with the big lie and folks better wake up to this and realize this i don't believe a word they say they'd be a fake videos they were fake video they sell us of video alex and so on believe it
4:21 pm
. well i mean i could show you a video of star wars job of the hut a big fat worm creature but it's not real the cia admits they've created fake videos listen they could shoot video you at high def for twenty seconds and then show you murdering your child with a pick axe if they want and meanwhile you're six feet under this is the twenty first century orwellian system just like the old days they could write a fake confession. in an old soviet or nazi gulag and put you to death for it of course they can create fake videos they admit they've done it again washington post it's criminal it's a criminal illegitimate foreign banking cartel that runs america and stages the terror attacks or finds mindless pats each run either in my six moves side cia handlers like and we're all a lockie the cia lackey and adam the american good don i mean over three years ago wired magazine said that the intel center that had
4:22 pm
a former head of black ops of the army running at this private group was uploading the adam gadahn videos with the intel center's logo in the same video layer as the idle loco. ok this is all studios plainly ok it's all fake all right certainly an interesting and unique perspective as always alex hone alex jones host of the alex jones radio show. one may first many people also celebrating may day the day to honor workers and union and immigrant worker right now are feeling the leaders here in the us truly care not only don't care about labor unions are about to be destroyed by u.s. corporations our kids were among the window without a rally yesterday in los angeles and have this report. marching to the beat of the drums thousands of people took to the streets of los angeles demanding more jobs and better pay this like many other maybe marches
4:23 pm
across america has also transformed into a cry for immigration reform rage against the machine guitars tamburello says workers are workers well i mean around the world on may first workers of all stripes of all religions of all colors flood the streets to show solidarity with one another it celebrates the history of workers progress of work the struggles of course were the successes and of the challenges we still have before us so i'm always on the streets on may first union members in particular are feeling the challenges to work a rights steve first or a teacher worries about his ability to earn a decent wage at a time when collective bargaining rights across the country are under attack i don't think people on. their side really understand that there is power in people there's power unity and that the more they think that they can get away with stuff you know you have to beat people international workers day has its roots in america
4:24 pm
when workers organize to demand an eight hour workday but today maybe it's not an official holiday in the united states and marches like this one in los angeles are still not as passionate as rallies taking place in other parts of the world in turkey hundreds of thousands of people flooded the streets demanding better jobs and pay in cuba massive crowds in red and white marched to the banner to commemorate the workers' holiday in germany anti-capitalist demonstrators clashed with police in berlin i think the word will spread the more the more and more people get pushed around it'll spread the starts of the big cities and starts in the urban areas and it will spread worldwide. eyes of all colors are waiting here in the streets of los angeles as thousands of people show their support and solidarity with immigrants and the workers of the world now this may day rally is not as hard as it was received here that but the people that are taking part today
4:25 pm
say that it's always better time for the rest of america wakes up to what they call the word tax on workers' rights enjoyed in a wider struggle to achieve a more fair and equal society this corporate agenda like these right wing governors what was it that trying to make this a company a country of the corporations by the corporations and for the corporations as you see in the streets of los angeles today we want this to be country of the people by the people and for the people in los angeles double belly r t a look out when workers of the world unite i want to bring jonathan to see me into this discussion he's the president of the economic future group. jonathan we just showed a report that you know showed thousands of people on the streets of l.a. but it also showed people all around the world uniting for this cause and some of the people that did show up at this protest in los angeles saying you know the u.s. is a little too apathetic about this do you agree that that so many people in the u.s.
4:26 pm
have just become apathetic about workers' rights. well i think the problem really is that there's so much of an attack against workers' rights in this country you know it's almost impossible to form a union legally here twenty thousand workers a year roughly are fired when they try to form a union so people are really intimidated the second thing is that you know labor and unions are not even taught in school anymore so people are very ignorant of what it means to be in a union and because the labor movement has been so under attack for less than eight percent of the private sector workforce city and so people just have no clue what it means to be a union you know i think about it i think about people in my parents' generation who talk about how important the union was it to their experience of other worker no matter you know from teachers to new facts errors what has changed that has changed you know the bigger idea here. well i think i said before people
4:27 pm
they said they'd say two things one is not enough people belong to unions so people of the younger generation if you're under thirty you probably not belong to a union people don't even know what unions do i've tried this out a number of times i'll ask a relatively younger person younger than me you know what's a union they're not sure they're not sure the union does and the second thing is i think that it is true that in america compared to other parts of the world people even despite the fact we have terrible unemployment here despite the fact that we have homelessness here people are much better off in many respects and people around the world there even if you're poor you can shop at wal-mart so there's a way in which i think prosperity in this country has led to a little bit of it except in sort of a lifestyle that means we don't fight we don't strong well they're not taught about the struggles and i think that undermines the notion of labor solidarity some of the people that ramon interviewed for this report same to put forth the notion that
4:28 pm
it was a war on unions by u.s. corporations that one can think you know they all just get along why would corporations or what interest would corporations have in seeing these unions the financial. well i know this is pretty soon a pretty it's creaky and reed and power and american based corporations you don't think this is american corporations they happen to fly an american flag some sign but the bottom line is that multinational corporations corporations based in the united states that employ people here the stop it a form of it's a union isn't didn't exist thirty years ago and they've been helped by it by partisan political system you know i'm very critical of republicans but even more critical of democrats who too often side with corporations against workers you know it's really interesting because we did see this to an extent recently in wisconsin but what will it take time to tend to get people more outraged to get them so
4:29 pm
outraged that they're on the three fronts within los angeles siding with the immigrant but if they're on the three then you know alabama or horrid hour that you know different non you know different parts of the country without a big city what will get people out there to really offer credit or rights back well i think that we're in such a crisis i mean in the camp of a great crisis i'm not sure which we will go it could go in the first in the direction of even we're sitting in a situation i think wisconsin was a positive outcome where people took to the streets almost without leadership there is a sort of a collective of outrage that generated and motivated people to get out of their homes get out in the streets stay in the capital night after night i think that they've spread it across to and she what is lacking he's leadership actually paralyzed the country i i honestly believe it got to the political system we need changes you actually have to have general strikes.
