i can't breathe after his death the medical examiner's office ruled that garners death was a homicide caused by the choke hold except the evidence of the video combined with the medical examiner's analysis seemed to have no impact on the largest union representing n.y.p.d. officers take a listen at the president of the patrolmen's benevolent association had to say earlier this week he was not a chokehold he was a big man that had to be brought to the ground to be placed on their rest by shorter police officers well there you have it folks it wasn't a chokehold at all i guess it was a strangle grab meanwhile both the man who filmed the incident ramsey order and his wife had been arrested on gun and assault charges respectively and while the charges may be legitimate considering that the has had a record of at least twenty four previous arrest the timing of them definitely raises some eyebrows but no matter the criminal history of order that doesn't change the disturbing an undeniable images we all saw on that video and as of the

for the last three days a temporary ceasefire between israel and hamas has held up after four week bombing campaign against the gaza strip by israeli defense forces called operation protect the bad wish the campaign has taken the lives of one thousand eight hundred sixty seven palestinians three israeli civilians and sixty four i.d.f. soldiers according to gaza and israeli officials at the time of this broadcast but beyond the devastating human toll much of the already weak infrastructure of gaza has been left in ruins but the u.n. sources as to maintain that the destruction could be as much as five billion dollars and will take decades to rebuild so i get a sense of what it's like on the ground i wanted to talk to someone in gaza so earlier i spoke with dr below or a physician at gaza city is all she the hospital i started by asking him to describe the destruction. of the city and i mean does this give the sort of you going to be this is the situation is going to. go we had more or less of it it
1:32 pm
was the good miss you know of to do good sure that all. the stink is. caused by some. two thousand homes that are destroyed but the hospital now and two other thousands that bush said he destroyed but didn't have to build but would not be able to build one of your former university workers on blood aerated and the other before and after image of al wafa hospital talk about the amount of civilian targets that have been bombed just in the last month. if you want to talk at a number of conventions for major hospitals that are. out of service now as a result of the damages we can talk to the health centers. more than seven you know
1:33 pm
us calls to a city a community college ten thousand homes seventeen major fuckwit is each one of them used to employ. workers we're talking about three. connecting cities together that are. not working. through to the bulldozers of the israeli army. of course it's much forgive the politics and the deuce of life for the central because they need. a definition of human sheldon's that the number of placement of noncombatant around combat targets to deter the enemy from attacking as well of literally fielding combatants during attacks we've seen rockets being shot near civilian areas as well as plenty of and some graphics from the i.d.f. showing the literal shielding of missiles with civilians but how long have you seen any evidence backing up that claim. not to see in my eyes but the
1:34 pm
same things over the years later. i call the choice that i'm let's just say that as for about six months i can draw them i've seen some videos showing video. this is a problem with those videos talking about two armies fighting even the militants that tried to the other regular men. regular adults five thinking that they founded we are now people underneath your patient and. to to protect ourselves from out of prison or even just as a lot of the coding to us because they still want to be like a nation so when we were like. luckily the problem with media is that we are to blame for both because there is a list by our own that we are names for our two thousand and twelve israeli significant casualties most of them soldier this is not right so we are examining
1:35 pm
our right to protect ourselves. we are all civilians. so we should not be blamed for. the videos that the press showed trust of all the stuff that's the situation these are all isolated. isolated accidents number two we are not allowed to go on the opposite side of the border here in gaza but it was their desire to go to the other side of the border there's a gag order and so that's been against any photos from being. shown being show the internet on t.v. but the few photos that will leave the show is related shows and to show time is coming to the is late it bases around gaza and just. as the army government buildings schools and hospitals without. massive
1:36 pm
i've never really heard anything quite like it belongs saying that two million people are committing self genocide and not being called out for such outrageous statements here you've been working of course i'm shifa hospital in gaza city i know that the hospitals are very limited only eleven beds and it's emergency room what's the status there right now how hard has it been to care for the influx of patients in fact on the second market that could have hit the market this one hundred and fifty injuries to the hospital in just fifteen minutes or so patients with literally it on lying on think a. lot of the hostages your as it call it goes with some of them with their limbs lying down. cite them some of them leading on the show to doctors and nurses could not manage all of the injuries. in any one occasion when one guy was arrested his hardest working because we are short on stuff we have wanted to be all and we
1:37 pm
have to live and die has not stopped working here to see the toll we had to the to . think spaceship to a lighthouse. just sort of i think so also that it was dedicated to serving five hundred thousand people and just receiving one of those. example we can deal with one or two injuries due to fifteen minutes but we cannot be able with. fifty injuries in fifteen minutes and. especially the local lives were lost due to that especially with this opportunity having a wife with a lot of. dr i can't imagine the choices that had to be made with who you needed to help the most and seen so much of that around you is extremely tragic and i mean we're just talking about the people who have been lost and dramatically
1:38 pm
injured let's talk about post-traumatic stress disorder p.t.s.d. according to a u.n. relief and works agency after the two thousand and twelve war which held in comparison to the recent operation the rate of p.t.s.d. in children more than double talk about the lasting effects that will be on children growing up in the wake of this devastation doing this month a few if you ask a few of the survey and you ask people all of them have even heard an explosion be exposed so i think suppose you see in some of the rubble were injured will try and that one hundred percent will be operational god subjected to such massive massive elitist trysting experiences not just once they are the. i've been defeated a going through such experience every day for thirty days i do can imagine them all the psychological and physical stress that the whole nation had to go through i myself was not. the one. on. the lot of
1:39 pm
the longest that i have slipped it just for being interrupted is a massive list so i can either buy it my street not being interrupted by the far away is. accustomed to it that's just myself and i feel about that show the imagine that children who was who had to witness their parents living in a child smallville exists father told his mother i have to see your father or your mother. unable to put their. children in the organ that that has to have a lasting effect on the ballot and should seeing as i'm able to protect all of them so. just this must have a lot of impact that's what i was going to show later that i started this all started going to see the basics later generation the children will be eighty when
1:40 pm
they get a lot. and of course like you just mentioned the temporary fire there's only a couple hours left at the time of the broadcast israel and hamas have not agreed to an extension what do you think we can expect to see if they don't agree to an extension and what would a stain of fire look like. well it's all full of the. terms or conditions such as lifting the siege have to be absolutely goshi asian those should be considered humanitarian conditions not political ones i would understand if political conditions are to negotiations but lifting this. to me being an idea being subjected to the siege will eighty years and this not be broken until after two thousand people might be a hundred people there and it actually are the people where it is it still appalling so why should it continue and people who believe that they have nothing
1:41 pm
to loose before the condition of the desolate thought it. was unbearable are so. as it is. and the idea of going back to the same lie only minus two thousand people of mine that skipped i was in injuries thousand homes or hospital bills and seventy five cities and by this more that sort of hit folklore to descend i mean exploited the idea is unbearable to the people that own them put this in the issues aside that people because one man named god is a but not this idea that needs to and thank you so much i your hero please take care of yourself on the front lines there dr paul de boer palestinian doctor in gaza city really appreciate what you're going on. x. thanks so much dr please stay safe. thank you will also be thanks for having me thank you. to stick around to hear about the sixty ninth anniversary of the atomic
1:43 pm
the folks. live. live live. live. cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want. they just want to keep building that allowing saudi arabia qatar and iran to fund millions of millions of pounds worth of the building of mosques in this country where they may have them addresses where current we have one hundred thousand four to sixteen year old children who have been schooled in these mature assets which is
1:44 pm
encouraging complete non integration within the society. although enough nuclear warheads exist to destroy humanity many times over very few people today are living under the threat of nuclear war it wasn't too long ago when that threat was a daily worry for millions of individuals this week marks the sixty ninth anniversary of the atomic bomb that decimated the japanese city of hiroshima the
1:45 pm
bomb was dropped for an american b. twenty nine war plame name the enola gray gave scuse me and mark the first time in the history of the world that a nuclear weapon had ever been used against a civilian population the destruction from the blast was catastrophic between the shock waves and a wall of tremendous heat event claimed an estimated eighty thousand lives instantly leaving another seventy thousand to suffer from severe radiation and other injuries many of whom died in the months and years ahead the only three days later a second atomic bomb was dropped on the city of nagasaki killing as many as eighty thousand japanese men women and children but as horrific as it is to think of this mass slaughter somehow being justified the truman administration regarded the bombs as a necessary evil and valuable to the allied forces and in the second world war that debate sadly still goes on but the day after the nuclear dust settled
1:46 pm
a new era of warfare had begun and immediately sparked a movement to do away with nuclear weapons the regret was perhaps most evident among the many physicists that either worked on creating the bomb or helped facilitate its use shortly before his death in one thousand fifty four albert einstein the man who split the atom and formally advocated for nuclear weaponry was famously quoted as saying i made one great mistake in my life when i signed the letter to president roosevelt recommending that the atom bomb be made. even following the very first successful that nation of the nuclear bomb in july is sixteen thousand nine hundred forty five there was fear and doubt among the many americans who are on what in the become the minds before the very first true weapon of mass destruction. during the one nine hundred sixty five interview dr j. robert oppenheimer the man regarded as the father of the atomic bomb remarked on the very first moments after the blast. i just remembered
1:47 pm
a line from the hindu scripture of the bard to read it to. vishnu. trying to persuade the prince but. they should do is to say you and to impress him take our wealthier and for him. and so. you know i am becoming a death. this world's. first course we all hope for but we're at number. three in the words especially since humanity is simulate learned nothing from the event of its devastating consequences amazingly during the height of the cold war when the u.s. and russia were threatening each other and the stability and health of the planet and the threat of mutually assured destruction plagued everyone's minds the opportunity to ban ballistic missiles and do away with the nukes was well within
1:48 pm
reach but it was ultimately squandered by president ronald reagan who rejected gorbachev offer because he was dead set on building a nuclear missile defense system in outer space but reagan star wars fantasy was just that and the results of that decision remain a dark cloud still today right now russia still has an estimated eight thousand nuclear warheads in the u.s. over seventy three hundred according the federation of american scientists and as the world moves from one chord war to resurrect another nuclear nonproliferation treaties have been drafted yet not ratified there are now nine nuclear armed nation in the world. so while the u. wife's government continues to delegate its foreign policy based on containing other states ability to develop nuclear power this week on the anniversary of her
1:49 pm
roshumba nagasaki we're reminded of the very obvious truth that america's the only country that's ever actually use them. the u.s. provides aid to dozens of countries around the world often in the form of communitarian assistance or weapons and other times whatever twisted form of democracy it sees fit to suit. it's agenda case in point recent revelations by the a.p. about the u.s. this fake twitter app and cuba. which was created to stir dissent among cuban air not users on the gambrel a company called creative associates international and just this week the a.p. exposed yet another subversive program in the guise of humanitarian aid this time usa i do you work within the same on bravo company to recruit foreign nationals to send through the prevention programs on college campuses tell me break down the
1:50 pm
story i'm joined by eugene puryear organizer with the answer coalition thank you so much for coming on your genes both of you so much for having i sure to have you on this is insane breakdown first what exactly what this program consisted of and how widespread it was so what this program consisted of and again run by creative associates was they were recruiting these young college age people from around latin america and finding any number of you know very worthy endeavors whether it's hiv aids prevention and i just other forms of n.g.o.s style work and saying go to cuba and use this as your cover here's a thirty minute orientation about what you should do if they try to catch you essential to use it as a cover to get people to overthrow the government so another in a very long line of you know really drag it back to nine hundred sixty of efforts by the u.s. government to overthrow the cuban regime but it was you know relatively widespread it wasn't huge it didn't have a significant. number of people but it certainly had a very significant reach across
1:51 pm
a wide range of different types of activities and when confronted about the program the state department official you know they acknowledge its existence of course you can't really deny it but they said no you know we acknowledge it but it had a dual purpose to quote enable support for cuban society while educating cubans on hiv prevention but a quarter of the a.p. report that was acquired from one of the members back to creative associates they only mention hiv one within a six page report it was only to say that it was the perfect excuse for the treatment of the underlying theme to. generate a network of volunteers for social transformation eugene read through the lines here yeah well i mean it's first of all it's an absolutely absurd premise i mean cuba has one of the most world renowned medical systems in the entire on the entire planet so we're now they have twenty thousand doctors all around the world who go to countries that have no medical systems and serve and solve all sorts of problems they have one of the most advanced bio pharma sectors of any country in the entire world to develop all sorts of very interesting and very groundbreaking and pathbreaking drugs so it of itself it's sort of
1:52 pm
a ridiculous thing that usa idea needs to come in there and teach them how to deal with hiv aids right and considering the failure of the cia vaccination polio program and pakistan i mean we're talking about a program that caused actually a rise in the perfect disease and also there's polio vaccination workers getting gunned down because they found out that they were working with the cia total devastation there why do you think this administration hasn't learned about kind of using serious health issues as a front for covert intelligence actually is detrimental well i think it's not that they haven't learned that they don't care i mean obviously it has a detrimental effect all n.g.o.s who are doing this sort of thing have said over and over again that it has a detrimental effect but when you key point when the key goal of your government which is of the u.s. government is not to solve problems heal the sick and perform other assorted miracles but to use all of your power possible to ensure that the united states is the most dominant country in the world over and above all countries you will use any and all methods and in cuba they've used any and all methods from invasions to
1:53 pm
assassinations they have a whole terrorist mafia right out of miami and so now they're using n.g.o.s as they have also in the past in other countries so i think it's less a case of them not learning and more a case of just callous disregard right and i remember when i learned about the zuni ok so i was really shocked that usa was able to do this and operate kind of on a humanitarian front but then i realize that they've been doing this for quite a while you're geno back in two thousand and thirteen even morale is actually out of the country and we're talking about i mean there are reports of everything from u.s. aid to helping us why. palestinian elections so funny mass torture i mean even to my surprise to learn this agency is doing this now would it be fair to say that it's always acted as another arm of u.s. intelligence so i would say certainly i mean usa id the national endowment for democracy all of these programs and departments that are allegedly doing these positive things have over the years over almost their entire existence had very clear and very consistent links to intelligence programs whether they're run independently or whether they're run secretly through the backdoor by the cia however it actually breaks down behind the scenes this is something that's not new
1:54 pm
and in fact in all regions of the world we see this over and over and over again that these so-called civil society so-called human rights organizations are really being used as a many different ways from the media to you know health prevention essentially is intelligence gathering and regime change institutions i mean this is not just intelligence gathering this is actually an attempt at regime change inside of cuba and in a way that even over time has proved completely ineffective for the u.s. government no matter what they've tried they're still you know bound held in determined to overthrow the cuban regime and they'll do whatever they can they certainly are i want to play a clip of senator patrick leahy question in usa idea administrator dr rajiv shah about the program. if we could. working. with it cuban government and child survival programs so it could be done. my understanding of the. amendment is that we would not be precluded from engaging
1:55 pm
in those kinds of. amendment would make sure that. we are we wouldn't we wouldn't. like this claim right there i mean do you think that's really what's preventing actual cooperation at this point well i certainly think that the holmes burton act is part of the larger the larger embargo the larger blockade is absolutely critical to understanding this reality certainly the u.s. embargo the u.s. blockade of cuba which has cost them over hundreds of billions of dollars in the years it's been in place has done quite a bit quite a bit to impact the humanitarian situation as well as the economy of cuba and the fact that they will covertly do things that they won't openly do shows how unbelievably byzantine this situation is eugene why why does a small island nation pose such a threat to the u.s. government are continuing to expel resources into the country to try to overthrow the government yes well i think that it poses the ultimate threat because what happened in cuba nine hundred fifty nine is they overthrew a brutal us back to her and they established
1:56 pm
a government that established universal health care the right to housing the right to a job all sorts of other very positive social and economic indicators inside of the country that they weren't afraid to do with they wanted to do and for the united states to say to have sitting ninety miles away from florida oh here's this little tiny country with very few resources that's been able to do so many things for its people so people in the united states might start to we can't have that exactly like if they can have it why can't we have when we can barely get any sort of health care i mean you see what kind of boondoggle we have going on right now there's people living out on the streets affordable housing is a crisis in every single major city in the country and small cities too and so obviously cuba has committed the ultimate transgression which is to show there's a different way to live there's a different way to organize yourself and you can meet human needs over a private profit and the united states government that's a crime i mean it really is true that there is something going on and they don't want to know in your view and i wish that i can go there and find myself unfortunately. hard from doing so thank you so much for jane prayer always amazing
1:57 pm
inside i'll be on answer coalition organizer in d.c. city council green party candidate everyone try to get out your campaign is rock and thank you so much for coming on thank you i really appreciate it thanks so much thanks for watching you guys are follow me on twitter at abby martin grandma want to break the set all over again. clean more zero casualties war this is the great fantasy of war mongering politicians. capturing people is messy what do you do if the innocent killing them easy we were served the right to kill any person anywhere any time. they couldn't do that in the sixty's but they can be trained to metal makes these things are very dangerous and politicians get
