address to the security council secretary kerry reminded members that the use of force against syria is an option that u.s. president barack obama continues to keep on the table reporting from new york marina port r.t. and speaking of the u.n. general assembly before the vote for a minister lavrov said the world's no multi-polar of there's no place for unilateral action against other states without collective approval it's a contrast them to president obama's theory of u.s. exceptionalism which she defended on the same stage just a few days before your political analyst eric draitser told me it's a mantra of resulting from america's declining image. essentially what we should understand is that the language that obama is using is not only just to make the case that somehow the united states is above other countries that the united states is above international law that the united states is above the very institutions that the united nations represents that it is above everything that has happened since world war two in other words it is the might make makes right principle and

you know you don't want to reduce it down to such a simplistic concept but unfortunately that is the reality of international relations when it comes to the united states and of course their anger with the russians their anger with putin is his and russia's inability to accept this principle and we're seeing a tectonic shift i think in global geopolitics as countries who even ten years ago would never even dare question the notion of american exceptionalism and america's ability and albeit right to assert its military authority around the world now this is being questioned and this is of course a combination of many different factors not the least of which is america's global pristine in decline. as foreign minister of the sidelines of the u.n. general assembly he told us damascus is willing to comply with the chemical. but is worried about possible provocation from rebel forces. we control our

well again mercenaries drones and cyber warfare may be the only way forward for the u.k. military according to a study that's been put together for the country's ministry of defense it turns out that army chiefs are worried that the british public just won't be sold on war anymore so now they're looking at how to reinvigorate the warrior spirit that is laura smith found out. how to sell a war to a british public that's not buying that's the topic of the latest study by the ministry of defense reacting to what the paper calls
12:16 pm
a wrong assumption that the british people has become risk averse in a nutshell the paper says it's not the people don't want war it's that they don't understand how it will benefit them so in an effort to explain war better the think tank makes them recommendations. make a large investment into drone suggesting that if people in foreign countries they killed at arms length the british public mind so much second use more contractors aka must raise rather than british soldiers to lessen worries about casualties. use more special forces soldiers because apparently the loss of soldiers doesn't have such an impact on the public because that role is perceived as inherently more risky and full something military families are already calling disgraceful reduce the profile of repatriation ceremonies for sessions of hearses carrying coffins
12:17 pm
straight to the union jack when bodies are brought back from afghanistan. but a war weary british public isn't keen on having its opinion swayed and is particularly adamant about keeping repatriation the ceremonies in the public cause i think there should be respected for what they've done and we should be aware that it was just more just the. only thing they can do. publish to write possible should be. a thing basically fish shouldn't be going to war so it's really trying to avoid war rather than try to make it sound it makes an interesting way the paper appears prescient as it was written before the british parliament voted against getting involved in syria under the immense weight of public opinion but. it seems unlikely that the public will be manipulated into supporting conflict quite as easily as even the ministry of defense admits that the

stupefy children at a moment's notice as a paradigm some sympathy with this idea because i like all of you see in the technology is dumbing us down a lot i mean how often do you have to memorize a phone number nowadays and we've all seen bad parents just sit their kids in front of the technology and ignore them to chat on facebook about what they saw on netflix. but on the other hand for the first time in human history you have the power of knowledge at your fingertips there is an instructional video to do anything you want on you tube and getting basic information on any scientific or historical topic is one click away if you find the idea of the self-made man romantic and now is your time because anyone who has the will to learn can learn you know i don't come from money without the internet i would definitely not have this job and i'd probably be worshipping at the feet of rush limbaugh deluded by the mainstream media modern technology can make your mind with information or break it with cat videos and dumb trendiness but that's up to you and this is just my opinion.
