2:29 am
beginning. to was sixteen and the skulls like cords and big trouble. with that kind of retorts that you were the surrounded by vitamins and one of the settlements was president tom. what about russia you know what i do which flagellar licious i'll. vote. came from russia. all right we are being lied to about syria we're being lied to by the president we're being lied to by the mainstream media this is my surprised face. last week fame to people it's a prize winning journalist seymour hersh revealed the motivations and facts given
2:30 am
by trump for bombing syria were about as truthful as a bill cosby testimony. and less than testimony for jell-o. put in which i still believe people are generally live. i would like to sell you the name of journo. you remember trunk's justification for bombing was the use of chemical weapons by assad but hearst revealed that the syrian military did not use chemical weapons but the us military knew what assad's military was doing at the time and at the bombing was meant to hit a high level meeting of jihad as leaders and did just that hersh is source says it's this was not a chemical weapons strike that's a fairy tale military grade sharon is odorless and invisible and death can come within a minute no cloud so if it were say we're in there would be no clouds but instead there was a slow moving cloud of chemicals a bomb damage assessment by the u. . military later determined that the heat and force of the five hundred pound
2:31 am
syrian bomb triggered a series of secondary explosions that could have generated a huge toxic cloud formed by the release of the fertilizers disinfectants and other goods stored in the basement patients on the scene smelled of bleach suggesting they had been exposed to chlorine remember sharon gas has no smell in that way it's kind of the opposite of steve bannon so so if the u.s. military knew that this was likely not a chemical weapons attack. why didn't they tell trump why did they want to go more on what's happening in syria if it's a goddamn mass but it's not chemical weapons well seymour hersh states the trumps national security team did try to convince him but it was a bit they were about as effective as teaching math to a goldfish. because even if you get past the memory issues still how's he going to
2:32 am
work the abacus you know hands. first says i learned of the total disconnect between the president and many of his military advisers as well as officers on the ground in the region who had an entirely different understanding of the nature of syria's attack all this time i was under the impression that trump was just and misinformed what are relieved to learn he's informed correctly but chooses to be dumb. or was. right. why am i going to go in there all that's right if you watch the mainstream media you already know that syria did not launch chemical weapons. i told response to the syrian government using chemical weapons against innocent men women and children last night take out his airfields and prevent him from being able to use them to
2:33 am
bomb innocent people and try sharon gas now i'm guided by the beauty of our weapons hitler who didn't even sink to the. to using chemical weapons chemical weapons against innocent men women and children in a sense before the beauty of our weapons to using chemical weapons proxy serry gas now the united states of america is back. oh ard na. yes our corporate media apparently only bias trump snake oil by the gallon when it involves the reason for blowing up other countries essentially no serious discussion was given to questions about the chemical attack which every other wide from tells and we can we can all agree he makes lance armstrong look like sojourner truth right. with all these other lies our mainstream media calls him out for being chalk full of shit it's the only thing they celebrate is his war propaganda it's
2:34 am
the equivalent of being upset with your friend for his endless lying in regards to everything from who's ball scoring to to who bought the last round of drinks except when it comes to the tinder dates he's been murdering and storing under is bad. when he lies about those you congratulate him and give him a job well done. and this is not the first time a president has led us into bombing a sovereign nation with the gleeful assistance of our media here are just three examples of many the iraq war i'm not sure if you're familiar with this minor footnote in america's distant past but the year was two thousand and three and a strapping young lad named saddam hussein had really gotten our goat. following nine eleven hussein was discovered committing the unforgivable crime of ruling a country in the general vicinity of the country that actually birthed the
2:35 am
hijackers who attacked us. he sat atop a lot of oil that he refused to just give us. a hand he dropped the petro dollar which is like our favorite kind of dollar. luckily his weapons of mass destruction program as seen here gave us an ironclad reason to invade he was preparing to kill oh oh. million innocent people later after he had been toppled arrested hanged and we had killed roughly a million innocent people we found his weapons program consisted of three guys with a slingshot. bridge might not sound bad but the slingshot could be retrofitted to launch stones the size of popeye us. in our defense after the million people were killed in new york times did issue a correction it read a correction over the past four years we reported that saddam hussein had weapons
2:36 am
of mass destruction and therefore the us needed to invade iraq destroy their society topple their government and kill a lot of people please ignore that reporting. it didn't actually say that but instead of. those vietnam war started following the gulf of tonkin incident even maybe it's a lie the gulf of tonkin incident is actually two incidents that were actually one incident which is actually only a half an incident. on august second nineteen sixty board the u.s.s. maddox exchanged gunfire with three north vietnamese torpedo boats the us claimed the vietnamese fired first but in fact the u.s.s. mannix fired the first shots then two days later two u.s. ships spent four hours firing on various radar targets that were attacking them they sunk to torpedo boats which may not say you know which move a sound like a wind right they sunk two boats but you have to take into account that those
2:37 am
torpedo boats did not adhere to the traditional definition of existing. so it's actually surprising the u.s. navy didn't sink for more than just two imaginary boats one i report you saying billions of bogus that's right the u.s. military spent four hours shooting at rain clouds in the gulf of tonkin following that confrontation defense secretary mcnamara and vice president johnson to retaliate and the president agreed in the two thousand and three documentary the fog of war former secretary of defense mcnamara admitted that the august fourth gulf of tonkin attack never happened. so our justification for getting involved in vietnam was two incidents which were actually only one incident which was actually our fault. over the next several years fifty eight thousand u.s. service members and as many as three point eight million vietnamese would die in the fighting but those rainclouds knew to step the back right of ghana's
2:38 am
stand almost all the nine eleven hacker hijackers were from saudi arabia and osama bin laden was alternately found in pakistan. or god of you ask yourself how much cable news reporting you heard of the fact that truck bombs syria for a completely false reasons our media has a seemingly limitless amount of time and energy to get the story wrong but you just can't seem to find the room to schedule in their schedule to get it right you know it's tough i got like my daughters recital i gotta do. it all the time for the reporting. also ask yourself why when assad is clearly winning the war against the rebels he would choose to do the one thing that would get america directly involved through teacher glee it would be about the dumbest thing he could possibly do it would be like of the golden state warriors were up by twenty in the last sixty
2:39 am
seconds of the n.b.a. finals and suddenly steph curry just stabbed what bron james in the thigh. sure it might get the braun out of the way i put it also land curry in jail following a game the warriors were about to win any right. if there is anything our nation's news channel should take seriously it's war so corporate media please drop your pom poms and do your damn job right that was my less cynical ending where i pretend our media wants what's best for america and just needed a proper scolding to get back on track. here now is. my actual ending the corporate media is built is designed to cheer on aggressive nationalism and unquestioned jingoism they perpetrate a fraud on the american people in order to make sure we support the endless destruction of other countries and any reporter who does not bolster blind american
2:40 am
hegemony is quickly stripped of their cushy job their gold plated health care and their sparkly cocktail parties before being put out to pasture whatever do you. think the media the r.c.c. the phrase. get a good enough camera let's take the news from behind did everybody have a good july fourth day do you. think did you do like i did and celebrated by covering yourself in on. the other american flags teasing the american flag
2:41 am
nipple clamps the american flag that's. covered everything here you know what a little shopping spray shoving is rare i gotta figure you got to do it i have a big american cook i read before of all american bout of diarrhea right here. sell us a little of those things made in china made in taiwan may have been covering. made in bangladesh and we wonder why the average american is struggling not even our nationalism is made in america. our own pride in our country is mass produced by a twelve year old and guatemala. who hates you. and we think that's a sustainable model how do we want the way this stuff go and go inward off the wall in self-delusion. or all that only the best ten chances of. denial is not just
2:42 am
a river in egypt all right and if it were we would bomb it because your data has the only dial. if we can have it no one will. i mean honestly what do you think what do you think the sweatshop workers are thinking while they're making this because i man americans sure do love polyurethane. just. i can actually smell the fumes coming off and stuff don't get me wrong i have no problem with nationalism except for it being a figment of our imagination that we used to find an excuse to hate and kill each other in a similar manner to racism but not my one not my point though i'm saying that even in something like this something like the simple wearing of july fourth garb it requires willful ignorance of what it says on the label and so on it's a lot of people it sounds like you have to google where did my american flag that come from you know my kids that actress in that movie and you're like oh what is
2:43 am
she from she's from something or think i think i don't know something with teeth maybe a dentistry thing i don't she's from some it's not like that it doesn't. it's right there made in china what does that mean for our society these tags symbolize the cutting of our own work force in the name of profit the completely inefficient use of goods and labor and the fact that these corporations have no allegiance to this country no one budweiser is based in belgium burger king is based in canada it really is google and apple are based in ireland they move there just so they don't have to pay taxes your i phone doesn't give an i phone. these tags also represent the abuse of human beings in other countries and we're fight with and how do you how big would the label have to be before it became a concern of ours like what if the entire back of the shirt said made by
2:44 am
bangladeshis when a child laborers could just send us a business can't. figure left over one would that give us. pause or we just go about our dog in a way that. i'm just i'm asking for a front that's number of what we have to go up critter go to a quick break but join me on twitter at least camp and at redacted tonight plus i have live comedy shows coming up in minneapolis chicago and washington d.c. just email redacted tonight at r.t. america dot tv for details and to guess what arrived back. companies like comcast for example is a company that is an anti-american as they get it as if it's a company as anti-democratic as it gets comcast barcelona n.b.c. of course they are. of course. parody epic sketches and
2:45 am
think that their banks sold liberal attacking a foreign ministry the same time serving the terrorists so those people are in that so situation should understand that they are to. salute the dubrovnik in venice or will fix travel destinations so it must be nice to live or is it. crowds of tourists disrupt the city's economic and social life to leave before the sun the same must go on them all such as the traditional story son us comes by him sometime soon as we just might need a school my days and i'm on my feet while the city's trying desperately not to collapse. collect the profit of what was up or will probably go up on the dole coffee cup at home in the bushes up to own some snuck up to
2:47 am
a i came with the topic of independence day according to historian howard zinn the revolutionary war is considered one of america's holy wars not religious but meaning it's beyond reproach it's sacrosanct and you can't criticize it without the collective american psyche coming to life and bitch slapping you with a toby keith platinum album. why is that here now to explain is our senior historian john of o'donnell. who was why why can we say anything bad about the american revolution because there's nothing bad to say. the war for independence was pure it's like a baby snow leopard living in the himalayan mountains of tibet or a kindergarten student with a brand new backpack. or a really good go came. your. no john the revelator war wasn't pure war i'm glad the colonists escaped the tyranny of britain i'm glad that
2:48 am
happened but it didn't mean and dependence for everyone right codified slavery in the long. on at the time of the constitution only six percent of the people in america could vote yeah yeah but it was still a pretty great war all in all what about all of the killing that had happened how else were the colonies supposed to get rid of them dirty red coats you know i mean when you're dealing with a brit you got to take your bayonet and jam it through is alive the black heart will scream in yankee doodle dandy hey that's copper you're on. the only way. this is it no there there were ten solid years of of nonviolent action taken by the colonists preceding the first battles it was so effective the by seven hundred seventy four british power was essential to disintegrate ok ok the story i'm here all right. and i have little to no idea what you're talking about you really should
2:49 am
probably you know i just know the greatest hits right like no taxation without representation. and i memorized the famous poem by longfellow about paul revere whom i have no fear it's paul revere hey paul are the british near what's that first you want to be err no problem while you drink it shall i recite king lear perfect perfect all appear well done i think we're a little off track here people need to know about the decade long nonviolent struggle struggle that involves tactics like boycotting and work refusal and creating an independent economy in a sense of shared american identity now for rich white male landowners i mean that's like the worst version of the fortune cookie game when you have to add like in bed at the end but instead you have to add four rich white male landowners right that they are passionate new romance appears in your life when you least expect
2:50 am
it for a rich white male landowners. lame. it's terrible you just carry fortune cookies were there whatever renowned political scientist gene sharp believes if the colonists didn't turn to armed struggle they might have even become for it sooner well i mean just because he believes it doesn't mean it's true i mean people believe the earth rotates around the sun but that's not true. advantage of zaphon only is true along regardless of whether or not it can be proven that the colonies could have one nonviolently assuming that our only option was to fight a bloody war is just that it's an assumption well you know you're right the problem is once a historical event has occurred it's very difficult to imagine that that same result could have been achieved in a death in a different way like i could say priscilla britton insane in the membrane without smoking a field of ganja. because the revolutionary war was for
2:51 am
a just cause independence we extrapolate therefore that it was a just war and we use that misguided extrapolation to rationalize future conflicts . how can you know that and not know the earth rotates around the sun. i don't know i mean well maybe the answer is right here. got another one. when hungry order more chinese food. for rich white male landowners. yes. there was a very important yet hardly talked about supreme court decision a couple of weeks ago so here now to school us on some is redacted correspondent on the care of.
2:52 am
the supreme court at the close of their term this year buildout how bush officials despite the extreme abuses against innocent post nine eleven detainees a far reaching decision that critics are calling ominous dangerous disappointing shameful and saying increases executive power. this is not a good time for that after you see what's going on on twitter. you remember raised more than five thousand immigrants following nine eleven were put in indefinite detention suffer grisly abuse and were cut off from the outside world and specially warriors you can see the amount of detainee's who were found to have connections to terrorism in mind sophisticated chart so i was you can see it's zero percent but if you multiply by with other side of the chart it's still zero percent you
2:53 am
know i don't think that that's true or is that events but it clearly indicates the result and it could also be a boop. going to one thousand nine hundred seventy one case called given versus six you know well. we don't have time for that name this is cheney. consumed federal officials for damages for constitutional violation but not if they were acting in the out sensible interests of national security according to justice kennedy's majority opinion in the case invoking national security q precisely it allows for anything you can detain people on lawfully bomb countries cheat on your wife house paint publicly sometimes you can hear lawmakers say it's my national security and outcry of but i want to know why am i explaining all this to you of course you saw analysis of this monumental case on a c.n.n. panel actually put out a video that he was it was fake leslie juneau saying it's fascism no not your own
2:54 am
movie that was them doing the important work of analyzing trump's wrestling name they had all kinds of specialists weigh in on what a sling means political commentators a veteran of reddit a veteran of the w w a and the terror he destroyed without them we would be smarter we would actually be a lot smarter soon after the attacks the f.b.i. had identified the hijackers and the hijackers networks however we learned from again changing piece of evidence in the case ashcroft intended to racially profile ashcroft had one of the agencies to investigate individuals with muslim sounding names and they weren't even good at racially profiling because they arrested not only muslims but also jewish israelis hindus sikhs and this falafel plan which found himself in custody reach is understandable falafel would catch up we know new
2:55 am
came from foreign chickpeas are not bowling anyone with that condiment cover the cia acted upon ninety six thousand terrorism related tips from the public according to as. b.-i whistleblower colleen rally the most common citizen tip we were seeing is something to the effect of i don't want you to think i'm prejudiced because i know i know oh of course not it's only things that what i just have to report this what is it is a cons bombs ticking luggage or worse a two decade old who with me you know none of those things tape was usually about an arrow middle eastern man and the tips lives by or works with so to the noble citizen who called the f.b.i. on my dad was it because he is really dark skinned or because you saw him curse at his lawnmower in arabic the lower courts determined that high ranking officials
2:56 am
should all be held liable but the high court reversed that decision because officials to me second guessed difficult put in necessary decisions concerning national security policy we threw innocent people in jail executed the wrong people during other wars and now we're always out or so yeah second guess please take a second phone a friend peruse the constitution take a leak see on your ashcroft for just a second and then ask yourself if illegal detention under no stinks of civil rights abuses or you just didn't wipe your ashcroft anough at the supreme court i'm naming caravan me for back to the night. or our headline from the future in august us military accidentally goes to war
