future. greetings and salutations was a very interesting vote took place this week on capitol hill hawk watchers a vote critically important i quickly important vote that sadly you probably won't hear much about you see buried behind all the hullabaloo over hillary clinton's new do it yourself book on how to lose elections and not get blamed for it and bernie sanders instilling more fear and big pharma in the health insurance industry with medicare overall than a kid seeing a killer clown holding

a red balloon in the street gutter was sen rand paul's attempt on wednesday to inspire congress to put an end to the notorious a us math or national defense authorization act that has been used for the last sixteen years now to justify any and all u.s. military adventures overseas by the a perpetrated by our last two presidents sadly our military industrial congress voted paul's repeal measure down sixty one to thirty six i mean hey we can't have a calendar is trying to reign in the unconstitutional war making authority of the president when we have a nuclear north korea north korea to continue to provoke in fact just this week we even saw members of congress start mimicking the game of thrones style insults that we've been witness to all summer long between us president donald trump and north korea's kim jong il and as house representative ed royce exclaimed on tuesday i believe the united states or i believe the response from the united states and our allies should be supercharged we need to use every ounce of leverage to put maximum

pressure on this rogue regime time is running out well you can't get more fear mongering your war cheerleader than mad especially from someone who is the chairman of the house of representatives foreign affairs committee sell. with unconstitutional presidential war power still in play and tough talk on north korea now echoing throughout the holes of congress you and i both know it's time to start watching the hawks. what it. looks like it really is what. you are to pull out of it. what the like you know what i got. the please. please. please. please. please.

welcome what he watched the harks i am sorry robot tour a time top of the wallace the united nations security council has certainly taken a supercharged approach unanimously voting to oppose unprecedented sanctions on the north korean government this comes as the south korean government begins testing long range ballistic missiles unleashing firepower that could potentially target the entirety of the north archies on your part poles and seoul south korea where tensions between the countries are expected to continue rising. as officials here meet to discuss how to implement the unprecedented sanctions passed by the un security council this week targeting north korea and the foreign ministry underscores its commitment to apply economic and diplomatic pressure in order to weaken pyongyang today in provocative military act the south korean government launched a long range ballistic missile reportedly with

a capability of three hundred ten miles meaning if launched from anywhere near seoul it has the capacity to hit the entirety of the northern half of the peninsula it reportedly was launched from an f. fifteen fighter jet and dropped off the western coast successfully hitting a target after going through obstacles at low altitude this comes after seoul and washington additionally reached an agreement to remove the weight limit on a warheads for south korean ballistic missiles meaning tensions on the peninsula are certainly slated to rise now this is just one of the more overt acts south korea takes in order to demonstrate its strength against its neighbor in the north however it's not the only thing it's not the only trick i should say seoul has its leave in fact today i spoke with the former deputy head of the south

korean cia to discuss some of the other strategies seoul and washington employ to target the government in pyongyang. do you believe the obama administration's insurance policy which focussed on putting pressure directly on the government in pyongyang was an effective one you know obama policy was characterized in terms of strategic patience. which she was indicative of the desire that north korea will gradually be weakened to its own extinction in due course of time provided that north korea be kept from being resupplied. however. it is sort of

a race against time and. we have come to conclude that this table. initiative in terms of teaching patience was not working i'm personally very much. aware of what had transpired in poland during the reagan administration era and the reagan. era reagan crusade. in collaboration with the pope. and he he made a lot of investment in bringing some freedom into poland which resulted in the overthrow of the communist regime in one thousand nine hundred one or two which led to the.

establishment of bowen's house democratic government which. lose the before of the dominus of communists communism in europe it sounds like what you're describing is a situation in which the united states would encourage some sort of color revolution in order to reunify under the south under a more capitalist and pro western system. that is still hoped for by by the book of the south korean population i was honestly surprised by how open and honest mr li was throughout our discussion but that's just a small snippet of the fascinating comments he made to me in our discussions so i will include that in a special report i put together when i returned to washington for watching the hawks on your part until in seoul. you know everybody seems to

be you know up to eleven. you know the rhetoric. you know everybody has an idea for a solution everywhere but you know the biggest thing that happened in your home this directly plays into north korea what. trump could decide to do there because some when the world country that goes to war without authorization from congress it never really had one for a long time where they've actually which is funny to me because why isn't there much of an outcry that we don't we didn't want the its powers we don't want the president to have these powers we didn't want the president to have that much we were saying it's unconstitutional i mean we heard half of the country screaming and yelling about how obama being able to do this is unconstitutional so why are we not rectifying that now if that was the g.o.p. talking point for the last eight years or seven years then why haven't we done anything about it when you have chicken hawks like roy who didn't serve just saying my god we got a show on we got

a show on the back i don't even know what that means exactly doesn't know the reality. of the rand paul of kentucky he pleaded for his measure to basically say you were. calling out just how thinly stretched the justification was that once provided way back of nine eleven the have become as we're you know committing war all over the globe let's take a listen i don't think that anyone within al of intellectual honesty believes that these authorizations from sixteen years ago and fourteen years ago i don't think anyone with intellectual honesty believes that they authorize war in seven different countries. not only is that the lives that we are losing the american soldiers the brave young men and women who were sent to distant lands and asked to give their lives for their country without the senate taking the time to authorize the war i think that is terribly unjust and should end. but it did

not end yes congress voted sixty one. thirty something basically saying no we will keep going up that old are you about the bridges delta meaning eighteen years where you know the democrats are on one side of their mouth screaming about how you know this administration is so dangerous it's going to get us into war about but then when you have the opportunity to rein things back in and put the power in your hands for the american people about when we're going to send young men and women to die you drop the ball once again and i want to what you're watching a lot of people really have this discussion and this disagreement about who is responsible for this exactly and australian journalist documentary filmmaker john pilger recently weighed in on you know the tensions between north korea and the united states and the question you asked you know what are people around the world feel who they feel is ultimately responsible here is what john pilger i'd say. the problem is the united states and you have to look at this broadly. the the problem

for the rest of the world actually is the containment of the united states the u.s. used to during the first cold war talk about the containment of the soviet union but now it's the containment of the united states and frankly it always has been. it's an unpredictable regime salute me no doubt but if north korea hadn't developed nuclear weapons it would have been attacked all the same thing would have happened something similar would have happened to north korea as happened to libya and iraq syria and afghanistan. as you see our history our recent history of these kids are judicious keeps you about what justifies people around the world to say no no i want to say boratto i want to order these new group was because i'm nervous because i'm you know i might not be that favorable in the eyes of the u.s.

and i don't want them to come in and see. you know the power of a lot about justification even if it wasn't originally the justification for doing it they can use that because of our recent rise in foreign policy and these new sanctions which anyone who watches the show or knows anything about me knows that i vehemently am against sanctions because they don't do anything they hurt people at the bottom you know man or woman in a castle is not going to lose a meal the person at the bottom is going to lose the mail so one of the things that i thought was interesting is this is the way we're going to just cripple north korea this is going to handle it is that so the u.n. security council and stepped up the sanctions on monday and that was after that six missile test on september third and imposed a ban on textile exports and capping oil imports capping oil imports to the bare minimum needed interests people can survive it sort of like when you can't pay your gas bill if you're you know it will be just snatches if it's winter but i find that interesting that this this is going to be the one if we just don't let them sell

cloth. then we'll be able to really get it i think peter clues nick a professor of history and director of nuclear nuclear studies at the american university spoke about this sort of colorful rhetoric and that. about the only real solution that prevents one possibly nuclear war let's take a listen. because people like donald trump who've got no military background and little military understanding who's full of this kind of bluster and you've got nikki haley's saying time is running out but you don't have matt is saying that it's not as good moments until lucent is certainly not saying that everybody knows that there has to be a diplomatic solution and we even know what the diplomatic solution will look like nikki haley's said that this freeze for freeze idea is totally bankrupt and so we're not going to pursue it but ultimately that's what's going to be the answer that's what china is pushing that's what russia is pushing united states and north

korea are still technically in the state of war the korean war never ended and in addition the united states is carrying out these war games with south korea that north korea finds very threatening and they think that their only defense against their only turns is to have this nuclear arsenal. right well this is the thing that really sort of bothers me about this whole thing is that once and it gets politicized it's whoever's the president whatever well north korea hasn't changed in their leaders. things don't change here with our leaders so there's this repeating of mistakes but the thing that bothers me probably the most is this idea that now we're teachings that we're saying to south korea here's some here's some weapons here's some sabers go rattle them that'll take care of the problem we're going to have war games which only makes it worse and at one point who is responsible when there are lives at stake. all right as we go to break don't forget to let us know what you think about. twitter so your poll shows. t.

dot com coming up tabitha wallace still goes into the controversy surrounding the real hill and e.s.p.n. when we dove in this and then we delve into some new discoveries that are changing the way we look at the vikings i'm not talking about the national football league team talk about the real life states whom are watching the hawks. all the world's a stage and all the news companies merely players but what kind of parties are in t. american playing artsy america offers more. in many ways the news landscape is just like the theater and in the end you could never house when you're on. so much a part of the play all the world's a stage all the world's a stage all the world and we are definitely a play. called

the feeling to be something. every the world should experience to lead to lead and you'll get it on the old the old. the old according to jeff. world come along for the. he is the analyst stephen a smith commented both online and on air last year saying a basketball player's wife should look pretty and stay silent declaring quote you can't get caught up in your own individual emotions and having this zest to speak out over the years he has made fowle inappropriate comments regarding women has

excuse domestic violence and jumped objectified women on air to the point of being downright ghoulish rarely has e.s.p.n. made an issue of it and it certainly hasn't affected his multi-million dollar contract and yet when e.s.p.n. anchorage model hill tweeted among other things quote donald trump is a white supremacist who has largely surrounded himself with other whites premises the disney own network was very quick to distance and i was from hell and make sure everyone knew that her views were not shared by e.s.p.n. and a public sigman they declared what we have addressed this with jim bell and she recognizes her actions for inappropriate see this kind of benevolent sexism is not new since the beginning of recorded history women have been objectified to be seen and not heard told that are of value comes from working with and for powerful men silenced and isolated when our intersectional feminists feminism gets a little too feminine or intersectional for those still slathering their skin so

thin in patriarchy but it it is sad but true fact that women like jamal hill who by the way has eighteen years of experience as a sports reporter and a lifetime of living as a black woman in today's society is being thrown under the bus for speaking truth to power makes one wonder if we really have made much progress since government training videos like this about how to manage women in the workplace which came out in one nine hundred thirty three were the norm. you're angry. your be. for. do in a factory hell maybe the women just can't do gel one. don't mix pleasure with business five to four women can be awfully jealous of each other three are brave and do for me and finally women are more sensitive than men i'll say they're sensitive. oh i'll say worse.

it's amazing how. i mean it changes in a certain way but then it doesn't you know there's not many of these core things that are just sort of changed and they're not really when a man says when a man says something that is deemed inappropriate the line of excuses it's a locker room talk it's just how guys or it's just a joke don't take it so seriously we're all snowflakes blah blah blah that's what the answer is always but then this woman says something not an error has nothing to do with sports and they're screaming for her job yet there's. well to really over there goals of the first of. all that person needs to go kill them until you cross the line you can say anything you please generally and as long as you're always the case is your opinion too and i don't have an issue with a private company like e.s.p.n. is having guidelines for its people and saying look you need to keep this or this but you have to have them across the board you can't just i mean this is just so

childish and the thing is it also comes down to race and what i went to the intersection of feminism this idea that as a black woman it is different for her but it's still about her being a woman is a specific kind of you know woman that they think is ok we have to look at how her blackness. is used to get clicks it's commodified her personhood is diminished we talk about this by e.s.p.n.'s reaction as michael harry out of the root had actually put it really really well that quote nowhere is this box more noticeable that in corporate america where one's blackness this simultaneously commodified and shackled and this is a place that sat there and said oh we're too liberal so we're going to fire a bunch of people's we can you know the conservatives might get mad and this is we want to make an entire web site one they call a micro web site by the way undefeated just to focus on black athletes and causes so there's this understanding that if you're a man you can say all these things. and we were going to when you're

a woman it's different because we're sensitive and you know when women get some sort of an aggressive and up tone and. that's when you know the accusations of being emotional and everything else comes forward a certain words interesting there's a twenty six to study called you know women in the workplace which was conducted by leading in dot org and mckinsey institute we found that compared with white women women of color face the most barriers and experience the steepest drop offs with seniority despite having higher aspirations for becoming a top executive women of color also report that they get less access to opportunities and see a workplace that is less fair and inclusive and i think that you know i really i challenge people especially living here in the united states to really look around at the places they work and who they work alongside and ask yourself are you not seeing this kind of you know treatment attitude things like there's like there might be laws against discrimination that are on the books today but that doesn't mean that it's not happening in certain forms and the idea is we need to get that

out of our business world get that out of our societies and cultures so that way we can all have an equal shot at the pie that's the dream that's part of the american dream and that's what it's all about it is as a woman it just strictly is different because you are going to always say things differently people will react differently and that's been a part of society so we're in grained with these things it's not malicious necessarily but it's things we don't notice for doing it's making a comment about a woman saying that she in the workplace saying things like well she's not she's not good social skills yet we'll watch men run around and yell and pound their fists and things that you know i said where you can do things in the office that i can't without a certain reaction or in public where men are allowed a certain amount but with women you're not in this is my feeling this this whole thing is so patronizing that i just trust me and the three of us find it incredibly patronizing to say that they have to sit didn't sit her down explain to her that having a public and somewhat popular appeal. about the primary united states is sort of

inappropriate ok it smacks of this whole it's for your own good it's not what you say it's how you say it it's your tone it's all the way to silence to minimize a woman's voice and credibility by making it seem like the criticism is coming from this chivalrous place ok so you know let's get one thing straight ok i don't need a man to protect me from the big bad world war me about speaking my mind that will get me into trouble i know every woman with an opinion knows the only people who should be scared when a woman speaks truth to power are those in power. for your daughters out there are long before g.p.s. and waves breaking readers manage transatlantic voyages that have left historians puzzled for centuries venturing from there and so strong homes in scandinavia to destinations as far flung as iceland greenland even modern canada the vikings were on the head of their time and now thanks to a surprising discovery by a group of researchers we may buy only a bigger. bit or to use true chavez has more on this story. whether it's

cloudy or overcast no matter what the weather conditions the vikings are thought to have navigated across the vast atlantic ocean and to the north sea and for over a half a century historians have long wondered how viking sailors did it now hungary and researchers may have shed new light literally on how they may have achieved this using special crystals called suns stones. the researchers believe the crystals are made of calcite quarter eight or tourmaline which work as polarizing crystals which can help determine the position of the sun when it's cloudy or overcast if the crystal was positioned a certain way which is known as the sky light polarization method and a series of studies published by the royal society a team of physicists have tested to see exactly how accurate the method was in bad weather conditions the researchers a value weighted one thousand eight different sky conditions throughout the year and attempted to use the navigation method in each of them. in most cases the sun

was hidden by clouds and the finding showed the skylight paralyzation that had to be most effective when skies were clear or less cloudy but when the skies were overcast the message only work that the sun was low in the sky the summer solstice and spring equinox were found to be preferred times of year to navigate this way as the angle of the sun remained at less than thirty five degrees although the hypothesis has many supporters there are still those who say the study lacks hard evidence or in other words still a bit shady reporting in new york turn to the child as r.t. . well speaking of vikings when it comes out that is an exciting discovery in science and history it is often as you said met with skepticism and that disbelief of the findings often rears that sexist little head when women's roles and each insight is are challenged and the latest example of this a study came out this week that prove that bones taken from a viking village of burkas sweden in the nineteenth century are those of what they believe is in female viking warrior for years the bones were considered on the

homeless or nonstandard the bones were reportedly buried along with weapons a strategy board game and two data horses what we do know about vikings is that the men were generally buried with their weapons and tools and women with household items needlework and jewelry so imagine the surprise when the researchers found that the warrior in the tombs was actually a woman and that's right but of course many had to jump in and claim that it was a home alarm just because a woman was buried with worry or like items doesn't mention of the warrior but as baccy gal in archaeology professor at durham university points out quote this burial is clearly of a high status woman the fact that she's buried with weapons indicate this doesn't indicate that she's a warrior but if we interpret male graves in that way why not women's as well truly why not despite standard thinking over the last century we have discovered that women fought as gladiators samurai and even pirates sexism is often worse when used to deny the accomplishments of women to take credit for their. or ranged from

historical records what is not a blip or a historical fact just because it challenges our concept of how tough women have been all in the shadow of a male dominated world yes most definitely and you know one of the biggest keys is we always have to be open to new interpretations of history when new facts come out about you know a history that we all originally kind of a great upon and thought this was it you have to be open for that regardless of the challenges you're you know male fragility of wanting to be in charge of white male fertility of thinking that we're there and how and why does somebody said whatever may be yeah i mean you got to you got to leave yourself open to changes in history because that's how we can better navigate the future you know and there's this is that weird equality stuff that we talk about it's looking at things in that same way and it goes down to even science and archaeology we have to test ourselves look things are equal in the rest of the universe we might as well have them equal here on earth all right that is our show for you today remember everyone in the world you're told you're loved enough. so i tell you now i love you i am tyrone

turner and i was out in the wild keep on watching those hawks and every great night and day everybody.

our culture is awash in lives dominated by streams of never ending electronic hallucinations that. fiction until they are indistinguishable we have become the most diluted society on politics as a species of endless and needless political theater politicians and celebrities are two ruling parties are in reality one party corporate and those who attempt to puncture the. breathless universe of fake news just signed to push through the cruelty and exploitation of the neo liberal forty four so far to the margins of society including by a public broadcasting system that has sold its soul for corporate money that we might as well be mice squeaking ago.
