5:01 pm
it's tuesday july eighth five pm in washington d.c. i'm in the david and you're watching r t america well it's been three years since the u.s. carried out a covertly navy seal operation to capture and kill osama bin laden in the days after the successful mission the u.s. revealed that the men behind the attack were part of seal team six the navy's premier counterterrorism unit even though everyone in that raid survived shortly after that mission fifteen navy seals from the same team were killed after their military helicopter was shot down in afghanistan senate hearings were held in february with the military attempting to shed light on the circumstances surrounding what happened including whether or not the taliban had any prior
5:02 pm
knowledge of the mission and whether or not that led to the helicopter being shot down take a listen to part of that hearing. there is no possibility of information going up the chain and then somehow coming back out to the taliban we believe the enemy positioned himself in that building whether or not he knew anyone was coming in he was in a very advantageous place tactically. to strike the aircraft as it approached to this day there are so a lot of unanswered questions about this and some people including the parents of these seals now believe there may be more to the story some are even questioning it to an even greater degree to hash out that first fact of a little bit more i was joined earlier by radio talk show host michael savage i first asked him to talk about what questions still need to be answered here the first question is why were all of the seals rubber seal team six the same unit that look out of some of the alarm put on one old slow flying vietnam era helicopter
5:03 pm
a c.h. forty seven chinook when america has some of the most advanced helicopters in the world they never you should know with this kind of extraction mission this was odd number one number two why would why would you put all of your best men in one helicopter why make such a single target one of the spurs going through a fast attack on the proctors so those are the questions that have never been answered but it is it clear that that the same seals who were involved with the osama bin laden raid were the ones who were on this helicopter you know what they were part of the seven you know from the naval special warfare development group goals team six same unit same team ok well there has been a hearing on this very issue it was called back in february what was the result of that hearing was there any progress made in beginning to understand why that aircraft went down why there were so many navy seals on one particular aircraft. i
5:04 pm
never heard anything that came of it it wasn't substantive it was a. white wash typical us government whitewash i mean why did they even have a hearing because the parents were screaming out the parents i have you spoke with the parents little. i have not but i was going to ask you to tell me what you've learned from some of the parents you spoken taylor say that they have they have the documents to prove that this was not an accident number one michael strange the father of one of the seals who was. said that on at least three separate occasions prior to this is that his son grabbed him by the arm and announced that he had his will and his father said he's never done this before and michael his son later died in this crash that something is going on with the team somebody is leaking things out something is going on when he was on the show he said that i sent him your son that he was being sent that was that the father replied they knew they knew
5:05 pm
something was up every one of them other families of navy seals that died in this crash were what it similar experiences with their sons the last time they saw it that there are other anomalies that are that did come out and you have to talk to some of the parents who have more than i do that alone is the man at the hearing and got it now the father said on this show that there was no chase helicopter it was not what this a lot with the seal team which is very unusual i settled on my radio show so you're saying they plan to execute your son and the others on purpose the father of the dead seal said this one hundred percent sir one hundred percent that's what the father said. i don't know all the evidence but i do have some questions right well some some of the families of course believe the stories have they've put to rest others have insinuated that something is going on that the government may have
5:06 pm

5:09 pm
authorities are continuing to put military pressure on anti-government forces this comes just a couple of days after rebels lost their main stronghold to kiev in the city of slovyansk in the aftermath president petro poroshenko has confirmed plans to move forward and regain control of the eastern cities of lugansk and donetsk however the two biggest towns in the country's east fear that if seizures develop a major humanitarian crisis could ensue artie's bring the notion is on the ground in eastern ukraine with more. the operation leadership in kiev announced that the cities of the nets and lugansk will be besieged so that the anti government forces will be sealed inside without any chance to get any support from anywhere outside and all that with continuing attacks and of course fears a rise in right now that the consequences of this besieged could be more dramatic
5:10 pm
we had to rehear every day many times a day we also know that multiple rocket launcher known as or hey it was also used here both sides claim that they are not targeting and they will not target the residential areas but we have to tell that it happens and this is why me and my cameraman although we are now in the city center we have to work in flak jackets. to a few blocks away from where we are now going to the park and reportedly the driver died at the scene and today a minibus also was hit in the city center and reportedly two people were killed as well while the obvious strategy is obviously to target those who they claim a terrorist and separatists it is clear that ordinary civilians become victims very often. sure. as we move. because of what is. true of.
5:11 pm
well we can say that the anti-government forces are now in high alert preparing for this besieged but local residents are also getting closer to something that could be described already as panic this is the situation here on the ground right now and fears are that it could even deteriorate. from lugansk all right well russian authorities have reacted with anger over the detainment of the son of a russian member of parliament the man was detained by u.s. agents in the mall deaves on suspicion that he had been hacking computer systems to steal the credit card details of thousands of americans are made to check out has more. the u.s. secret service has captured the russian citizen in the maldives and shipped him to a u.s. base in guam where he was formally arrested now the u.s. justice department did not elaborate on the circumstances of mr city is no arrest
5:12 pm
neither have u.s. officials notified russian authorities about the grounds on which this thirty year old man was snatched in a mall deaves and sent to the guam overnight moscow qualify so there's no detention as kidnapping so there's no spa there who happens to be a russian state duma deputy lawmaker thinks it might be a scheme to trade his son for edward snowden his family also says but i'm a citizen of still doesn't have a lawyer moscow also criticizes the government of the. service smuggle people out of their country like that while the maldives is not the only place where the u.s. was allowed to do that thailand allowed the u.s. to take hold of victim loot the russian arms dealer in the capital of liberia u.s. forces arrested pilot constantine you are franco four years ago to charge him with drug trafficking russians are not the only ones the u.s. is chasing around the world citizens of other countries became subject to these kinds of snap extraditions in some cases they were captured just based on suspicion
5:13 pm
and later their cases fell apart like that of khalid to el masri a german citizen who was snatched in macedonia and sent to a cia black sites in afghanistan where he was tortured and the u.s. government later admitted it was a mistake and released him a similar thing happened to a house on nasir an egyptian cleric who was smuggled from italy to be released later so this is a recurring situation where the u.s. captures citizens of different countries without properly notifying their governments. and i was our correspondent guy in a check. how much does free speech cost well two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars according to the city of los angeles african-american michael hahn brought a lawsuit against the city of angels after being removed from a public parks and recreation meeting back in two thousand and eleven for wearing a clue klux klan hood and a profanity emblazoned t. shirt the commission president at the time barry sanders explained on the his

outfit violated the city's rules of decorum and gave them a chance to remove the offensive clothing however hunt refused it was escorted out of the assembly and given a citation for a disturbance which the city later dismissed attorney stephen road who represents han says his client wore the offensive clothing to test the city government the commission's rules of decorum do prohibit audience members from engaging in disorderly or boisterous conduct but a report on hunt's case conducted by a city attorney found that most witnesses at the meeting did not find hunt to be a disruption at all and that's why los angeles city council members chose to settle the matter out of court and this wasn't the first payout for hahn back in two thousand and nine a jury awarded him over two hundred thousand dollars when he challenged vending restrictions on the venice boardwalk. and still ahead here on our t.v. u.s. federal reserve chair woman faces

the us is a young country we're in the middle of writing the story that will be our legacy so you can be sure the people in power are going to try to rewrite our history just give it up as much as possible so that it reflects the propaganda they like to spew about america freedom and liberty for all the american dream all that crap this really writing of history by those more interested in profit than the truth happens in small ways all the time when no one's looking it just happened again and on this occasion it involves the john f. kennedy museum in boston it just received a large investment of two point two five million dollars from none other than.
5:28 pm
carlyle group co-founder david rubenstein the carlyle group is one of the world's biggest asset management firms they manage sprawling funds that touch just about every market in the world they handle buyouts they invest largely in defense and energy they have almost two hundred billion dollars in assets under management the carlyle group is one of those massive financial companies that are extremely powerful and are also extremely hard to figure out because their influence is so complex far reaching and very much under the public radar in other words the carlyle group is exactly the kind of company that j.f.k. railed against there are whole books dedicated to how much j.f.k. was against the growing power of the corporate and banking elite he had just come into his presidency after eisenhower left office and had issued his famous warning against the military industrial complex and j.f.k.
5:29 pm
tried to heed that warning some say that what got him killed whether or not that's true it is most definitely well documented that j.f.k. was railed against exactly the kind of entity that the carlyle group exemplifies and now here they are spending millions to remodel his museum and how are they spending their money by playing up aspects of a presidency like his initiative to put americans on the moon and his famous ask what you can do for your country speech they aren't building a wing dedicated to j.f.k. staunch anti-corporate anti military industrial complex believes in other words it's a classic case of how right now certain powerful factions are trying to rewrite american history to fit a narrative they want to promote because it benefits them unfortunately it's a false narrative that covers up america's only capitalism and consumerism that is murdering the rest of the planet.
