7:29 am
greetings and salutations all right hawk watchers i want you to prepare yourselves for what i'm about to tell you i want you to find that compete share turn up that volume and break out your favorite snack a mint chocolate chip ice cream man myself because you've got to prepare yourselves because i'm about to drop of bombs bombs on the mainstream narrative but i can assure you had c.n.n. and others gnashing their teeth and white knuckling when these little stories came blasting over the news wire let's start with our good friends at c.n.n. do you remember a few weeks back when saudi arabia the united arab emirates and others decided to execute a political and economic blockade against the country of qatar and c.n.n. excitedly ran with this tell our viewers what you're learning well wolf u.s.
7:30 am
investigators believe that russian hackers were behind a cyber breach against cutter's state news agency the hackers planted a false news report friendly to you iran and critical of president donald trump that is now being used by saudi arabia and other u.s. allies to as a reason to carry out an economic and political black blockade of qana but sadly if c.n.n. had express just an ounce of journalistic restraint instead of once again falling for the old unnamed u.s. intelligence sources blame all things on russia you know that line they might have avoided that awkward feeling of perpetrating bake news after it was revealed that this week by qatar's attorney general in actuality evidence shows this cyber attack on the state run news agency is linked to states that cut ties with qatar. or wolf blitzer egg it's so hard to wash out of that beard where it's all up on the face that were. and speaking of egg on your face it appears that every warhawk
7:31 am
intelligence harken cable news desk jockey who bashed chelsea manning by trotting out the military industrial complex approved line that her leaks put us in for some foreign policy of risks and both at risk in both iraq and afghanistan well they were either wrong or flat out lying to us obtained by buzz feed a one secret june two thousand and eleven defense department report concludes that the disclosures were largely in significant and did not cause any real harm to u.s. interests. so it looks like fact once again beats fiction especially when you're watching the hawks. it looks like. it's really. difficult to see. what it's like you know that i got. the.
7:32 am
world over and watching the hawks i am so i roll but i'm top of the wall as. well well a lot of eggs to go around this week you know it appears all across the board mainstream media's you know and then you've got the war explode start with qatar big big story out of qatar you know every ball we heard was russia and they hacked qatar planted fake news and that is the reason one of the main reasons that saudi arabia and all these others like suddenly blockaded them apparently all b.s. at the end of the day the saddest thing that i would say the saddest part across the board is the subject you don't really see c.n.n. and others attracting the story they're just trying to base it on the rug and not publicize the fact that ok we were we misspoke which is the noble. to do say ok we
7:33 am
were misinformed it happens to be on your face but if you just want to sweep it under the rug and say like oh it's just go past this and you know still make people believe russia is responsible for hacking qatar well that's the problem we have bigger things to talk about like the fact that apparently just to bait jake tapper to clear a search planes it all figured out that there was a war in the us you know where he was given to saudi arabia was being used the us was going to shock and open in yemen they're in we had them they were the murder using them to murder of people i'm not sure how that's like and that's not conjecture that's not propaganda that's fact us weapons have been used to kill people in. every year or maybe next i mean the whole point is that you're talking about saudi arabia's war against yemen obviously the show we talked about the fact that there's a you know allegedly it's a play it was a proxy war between saudi arabia iran frankly it's more of a power grab by saudi arabia than anything showing its muscle and here we are now with qatar is now in the sights of saudi arabia and its allies within the u.a.e.
7:34 am
bahrain and egypt because why because qatar is close to iran so could we see an escalation in qatar as we saw in yemen here last year or both those is stories like this this kind of rushed through you know secret source in the u.s. government told us rule rush just put it out does being the mouthpiece for u.s. intelligence and u.s. government you know anonymous sources that c.n.n. is kind of taken the mantle of over the last few months or years maybe. does that affect credibility then when this things like this happen that you know nothing about as we keep pushing this narrative every time that you should never question the official story that why would you question the official story and one of them is that they had reported that the f.b.i. the f.b.i. recently sent a team of investigators to doha to help you could tare government investigate the alleged hacking incident intelligence gathered by u.s. security agents indicates that russian hackers were behind the intrusion first reported by the government now as you said there are. a completely different story
7:35 am
now telling telling you know the media the attorney general saying we have evidence to show that i phones originating from the country is laying siege to us have been used in this hacking so here is the problem you jumped up and took a source that you had no backing for that information and now it's shown to be wrong so are you going to trust that source do you question that source and where's the story going hey we were wrong just like they were wrong about you know crowd strike in the ukraine hacking and this no i mean it's one of those little trust let's jump ahead to chelsea manning you had every look at every war hawk every you know kind of apologist for the you know intelligence state in the military state here in the u.s. all saying her leaks did damage you know our credibility our foreign policy put lives in danger does this report the buzz feed jason leopold of no go through for you that says that she didn't does that vindicate her actions. frankly the fact that she was ultimately released from prison early already in a sense gives credence to what she did and the fact is this this report does
7:36 am
vindicate her actions because it says that. about the seven hundred thousand secret files that she leaked to wiki leaks they had no strategic significance on the u.s. war efforts and twenty federal agencies all agree on this so you know there's pretty there's pretty good it's. all eyes last night won three suburban counties in georgia where according to mainstream media at least voters had a chance to redo the twenty six same election stop from care and score a big win in the twenty eight hundred midterms a year ahead of schedule but sixty million dollars and two hundred sixty thousand votes later the brand in chief is still president and the republicans got a confidence push as well as a collective sigh of relief so what went wrong well for one thing voters in georgia looking at the headlines of the past few months wouldn't be seen much about health care or jobs or really anything other than the symbolic significance of the election by all accounts on the ground this media blitz did not help voters. can
7:37 am
only process so many t.v. ads and so many unwanted phone calls before tuning it all out not only that but republican super pacs made a strong support from celebrities running millions of dollars of ads attacking the centrist democrat as beholden to hollywood and not one of us so a star studded entourage unseen amounts of campaign money a mainstream media echo chamber and the result that leaves voters disenchanted and exhausted is this the new normal for democratic campaigns as a strong question and you know it's interesting me about that is that the entire election in georgia to me with all that it just reeked that we didn't learn anything from the hillary clinton the buckle no there we didn't learn that like you know the more money you spend the more celebrity guests you tried out in all of that and the more you know robo calls and everything at the end of the day like like you same with it was all about you know what the boat man rather than the issues that affected the people there right that's what it is you know that from
7:38 am
shit for outsiders looking in that sort of looked like it doesn't look like they learned a thing in the special you talking about the south i mean people are proud obviously within you know within their state and they don't like being told by people from hollywood that a you need to vote this way because it's a protest against the president it's a protest against well they're seeing all this money coming in from california from people who don't live in georgia to tell them well we want to shoot movies in atlanta but otherwise we don't live there so and we're who are you to tell us how to vote that money i think is interesting because between both campaigns and super pac spending is both sides are not dissolve the republicans two floating money and everything without money on. the final price tag of this race land somewhere between sixty million dollars that's a monstrous number that's almost as about two hundred thirty dollars per boe per boe was this raised by both sides you talk about waste of money imagine what sixty million could. for george george so. remember then that's when you only with the
7:39 am
money and there was the numbers political out of back at the end of march because people are saying all of this money is coming from california and they'll let you look at the numbers in total amounts no it was you know. people from georgia technically gave slightly more at least at the end of march in georgia out fifteen hundred seventy eight people donated small amounts by two dollars to get six hundred thousand kept people from california the donators also campaign five thousand eight hundred twenty two people and their political accurately estimated that almost twenty five over twenty five hundred are from the bay area alone when you live in a state like georgia and you have you know people tweeting about how they're giving money and people from san francisco and that. what does a person in san francisco understand about what's going on with the state runs a little bit where it's simply a protest vote against. it just won't work in most states
7:40 am
maybe in a couple states that might work but the fact is that you say sixty billion dollars this congress yes is two years recent twenty years that i realized it is for two years of office to spend sixty million dollars it's amazing and the war and that's where the problem with the house represent every two years they go to run again the marines are going to spend most of their time campaigning and then you get a raise probably equal to that again just to get real work right it is the most expensive race i want to get on the celebrity thing i want you guys both have a gun for that sort of so we're looking at this thing with celebs and they said you know we're looking at a world where sarah silverman called on the american military to overthrow the president joker not to have rosie o'donnell as others have attacked the president's son saying he was at one point a future serial killer and an animal mutilator. and stephen colbert kind of got a free pass on a pretty homophobic remark that is just i don't care if you think about that and that don't make gay jokes it's not funny don period i don't really care resist.
7:41 am
do you think this sort of no holds barred resistance by. the countries or west. of relief do you think that i know it had an effect on us on some from people i've talked to think it has that's the fact of them hurting people who are going out of celebrities who are actually doing the work and not i think i think very quickly i'll just say this i think i think every celebrity has a right to voice their opinion about politics i don't think anyone should ever observe their a citizen of the end of the day i would say that if they want to use their celebrity to make light of some sort of a spotlight or something that's wonderful i don't i don't. however campaigns were lying on celebrity endorsements that's an entirely different thing because i think yes to a certain point it feels like oh pepsi is just sold me a product rather. you know someone who's going to look after me that's right perry is taking advantage of the situation with a political pop and yeah exactly all right as we go to break watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter
7:42 am
see our poll shows r t v dot com coming up sean stone interviewed the maybe i'm speaker of the national some. largely forgotten genocide you definitely want to stay to watch. this talk about blackness and the blues of black. always willing to be. told. we in remains as such because we simply. be. playing you told us to seek it's interesting. we came to face. the. blackness of understanding the blues of being black. she blues of being black. date
7:43 am
that we have ten knowing how when in what to do you come this simple in his national is be better to simply tell the feeling is black and blue. the. market is expanding hundred billion and growing growing by leaps and bounds as we've been talking about for years now there's a lot going on here and it's mutating and morphing and things are happening the buzzword of the week was one of the mob as i see initial calling offering. its final flight one. hundred eighty three. potential
7:44 am
just immediately leaking. to the final. push through. the security so. we get to. talk with the suit. to secure the crowd hold his breath. for to ask you what was the first genocide of the twentieth century some might say the jewish holocaust others might think of the armenian genocide but was actually a german colony of namibia where the second rice suppressed a revolt by the heroine. people before attempting
7:45 am
a systematic extermination of them one hundred thousand herrera nama were killed in the process and those that weren't found themselves this possessed and in concentration camps germany apologize for the genocide in two thousand and four but as they were paid reparations which are now being sought by descendants of the pharaoh a number of victims in new york courts under the alien torts that you learn more about the case i interviewed and even speaker of the national assembly peter beattie ask him why this lawsuit is finally being brought now one hundred years after the genocide. in this case where it is taking place events discussions between the government doing the media and the government on jan many have moved on. and there i get in men between the two governments to deal with these issues. and this is after the gentleman in the fossil he said actually accepted that what ok it in nineteen or four hundred. eight could be
7:46 am
ten am i suggesting it so there is an acceptance in winning as on the part of the german government to busy county come to terms with this issue that's where we are now certainly so the german government knowledge is that there was a genocide this was under the second wife obviously there was still essentially have been german empire existed but the germans would have argued that they had been paying in a sense a form of operation by giving aid to namibia since independence in one nine hundred ninety so why is that not a valid point to say that they've been giving millions and hundreds of thousands of dollars of aid and that should count as reparation. well i think i think we indeed we acknowledge that the media and jim in in doing the very core deal of the relationship. and about the creation the genocide it can never
7:47 am
be equated with. development eight. it is an issue that is fundamental need to be addressed. separately and right now the two governments two countries today have a plan don't dedicate it's special envoys who are overseeing this important process in the case and i mean we are deeply saddened by doctors. a prominent personality with vast experience in the history of our country and we are absolutely confident that their government of germany is aware of the effect that they can not merely hide behind. development aid given to namibia the issue of genocide is too important to be reduced to to the level of being created with development eight. it's fascinating and these are so interesting because you don't
7:48 am
get that history and we don't learn and not about the continent of africa and what went on there especially colonization. and that's the whole point is that we sort of lump of coal colonial era politics as sort of being what let's call it that's cloning and it was bad and we know it killed millions of africans who knows how many between slavery and between the overall you know the other wars and the genocide that took place in congo places like this and call it concentration camps the british south africa actually before they may be so it's really it sort of gets lumped into one batch and then you know what merkel is basically been saying is well we apologize but we think that we're going to just keep giving you development aid and consider that done whereas the these people are saying no we actually want you to give reparations as he did to the jews and the other point that i think he made was a look these are two separate things you can give us aid as a country just to help. john i'm curious
7:49 am
did you did you ask him about what you know i think what actually occurred in this genocide. exactly so the next clip will get into obviously the actual genocide itself as you mentioned why we all learned about in the west i wanted to get his opinion on it and also to understand a bit of how this genocide predicts what the germans did to the jews obviously there after the nazi regime so stick around this is the next clip. of what happened people. displaced. losing homes. where hangs the concentration camps basically what's happening i mean the. experimentation. with experimenting in the media doing that but you couldn't. imagine.
7:50 am
the media. to germany for expending meant for x x better meant of bet that this is all that form. of the x. what happened here so no media during that time was a testing ground during that period idiot and and as you said i had this was their says about genocide that ok it in the one in history. it has taken all these years but we can only say that finally at least the germans have this bonded we are now basically talking about the same issues that question the genocide and the question of what to do important since on that date fest an apology and have to be i get it up on and be stated loud and clear in that i meet in parliament secondly to agree on the this size and scale of of compensation or impartation that i get i'm not going to say much other than to say that that
7:51 am
form part of the negotiations so. obviously i think the as you know. will we have never been treated in this in way they do each victims of genocide where we're treated but it's at least we're saying. here us this issue will never go out with. the present generation to generation we'll continue to raise the issue and it is far better for us to deal with each other head on and it's to come to some sort of conclusion. and that's less us less heavy does have a with and that's important part about studying history and i see important part of why history needs to be upfront why we need to look back and reflect and make reparations are going because when he said you know what what was done there you know what was tested and done on these people and the horror of the horrors that was not upon them and then led directly into the holocaust that took place in the thirty's and forty's it was
7:52 am
a dry run. we know it works here let's do this again and i think the thing that is if one the problem that germany has us that you can't say one one time that we don't tell our side is ok and you know it wasn't the nazi regime but it was still part of the german regime you have to take responsibility for that because the ancestors that it's a part of their history they can't they can't just get over it yeah you can tell he's being diplomatic obviously i'm going into the the real feeling of you know i was trying to get this ok as an african well you know what do you feel about the fact that we don't accept your history we don't read about it we don't acknowledge your history you know you're not important enough to put into our textbooks i mean that's really the feeling i think you get when as a student of african history it's just like it's it's really brought it out so you know the final question that i put in was to really what the status of the reparations suit because obviously there have been governments talking the german government but will this supersede and this is what had to say. well. the case that has taken place in new york is brought about by
7:53 am
the. sect and communities. the two communities. and overhead communities have brought that case. that case as basically just ice and i tend. the negotiations here because. the government and i mean the government of germany i basically sitting at the table discussing that issue is not brought about by the government on an anime but rather they are community eyes tend to draw the attention of the international community do they apply for the economy those who have that it is doing. did it. and you know eight so that is it no matter that we do not have. power
7:54 am
over. the united states may do but i think what is important is the fact that the german authorities have this date. and we are concentrating on that because they see a winning days and the pedler is to engage and that is i think what we should be concentrating on we are not this is a city dismissing their quality in the united states we simply let that play a complimentary role in terms of how the issues of genocide. are you talked to him do you feel you know get from him do you feel like they will eventually get their reparations a bill get that apology and those reparations from the city apologies but he acknowledged but it hasn't been sort of dopp that is like a formal government policy apology where has he said he wants done in in the parliament essentially i mean there's different ways of doing it obviously is one
7:55 am
thing to acknowledge and say we're sorry and i think actually formally do it and stop it is a state policy and so what's confusing about the situation is that the new york ok so that they could obviously sue as you know as indigenous peoples in united states where we have states had nothing to do with this particular genocide but still. these people are able to sue here and against the german government so it's really up to the courts within the us to see how that goes but meanwhile the the me being government as a whole is actually now jumping the bandwagon saying hey i want thirty billion dollars from the german government for reparations and so actually some of the some of the defense in there saying well wait a minute you're jumping and are bandwagon because it's like where the indigenous peoples that are suing in the us the government are trying to say you want to have a bit to get a bailout essentially you know to get support so it's a very quirky situation that's why. one hand you have the individual suit then you have the government steward talk to you trying to figure out how to move this forward and merkel basically saying look we'll continue with our aid that we're
7:56 am
giving to your country but then the aid is not asleep going to the people and their descendants just because there's something really important we've seen that happened at georgetown when there was an understanding that there was acts of slavery and that slaves helped build it and they made a point of facing that and i think that's one thing you have to do is you have to face those scores of the past and as a country or as a people try to make up for those with the people that were burned i mean that's how we heal all these ones we heal slavery we heal genocide by talking about it and facing a category of that you cannot ignore your part in the whole you know the always this argument is made you know it's like oh well that was the past is ancient history where they still you know realize that the consequence of the economic policies that you engendered created the conditions of the present day and so you can't ignore these consequences of what war is that what slavery policies and claudio policies and all these things have created the conditions of the modern world and they crush economic summit that's why having it this morning is because for you know half
7:57 am
a century or more people can see more of this it will grow to learn more about the genocide and then to the quest for reparations the full interview with the preservation of you will be available online. cyber security is the future not just because some scary countries reading your e-mails but because online harassment especially for women has become quite frankly unbearable and with social media companies just clueless to deal with the problem girls are taking matters into their own hands girl scouts that is the girl scouts of america will be offering eight teen new cybersecurity thing just beginning this fall the idea came from the scouts themselves says girl scouts c.e.o. sylvia activate oh who stated young girls wanted to know how to make sure they didn't get bullied online older girls wanted to know how you can prevent cyber attacks. with each there was a dark industry estimated to be over eighty per cent male the programs will help to encourage and prepare young women to take on the future the girl scouts now selling
