so reportedly removing documentary evidence of just whose hands these weapons will ultimately be ending up in ivan and one of the report's authors told foreign policy quote the pentagon is removing any evidence in their procurement records that weapons are actually going to the syrian opposition. and despite the recent reports that isis is finally on its last legs in syria the report states that the number of weapon deliveries to syrian rebels are set to increase in the coming years with as much as nine hundred fifty million to be spent on soviet style ammunition by twenty twenty two. so with billions spent millions more on the way one has to ask is stopping isis really the reason for all these. or is the answer much deeper an ugly year than we could ever imagine let's find out and start watching the hawks.

with. the bottom. like you that i got. three. weeks. welder for our robot or up and down top of the well that's two point two billion dollars any big big money big money we don't have money if. you are hungry or you know how people in florida already. know about that but we have money we have guns soviet era guns that we've been taking from like the baltic states you know. the richest speaking their old left over weapons that we probably had. because

in these reports they're saying that they're actually getting more like the bottom of the barrel they're taking anything now would normally the safeguards avoid those guns but a little moldy and dusty for too long made it on them or they're just taking it what's interesting is they're buying arms through two separate channels one is special operations commander or so-called which oversees basically all special forces across the across the planet because. military is all over the planet now. and the picket to me arsenal which is a little known u.s. army weapons facility in of all places new jersey apparently they're like funneling all those arms traffic through there and then out to you know various countries that will then bring it into syria as it's a result yes but the interesting thing is that they're not really marking it off that way and all the checks and balances no no they are absolutely. what's also clear. they're not actually doing that in fact they're breaking the rules are they

not yeah you know one of the things we're talking about according to the report is that to secure these arms imports letter export license is in other countries the buyers have to provide this valid end user certificate guaranteeing where the weapons will end up and when some of these reporters had seen some of the the certificates issued by socom under this syria program what they found was that syria. it doesn't mention syria is the final destination. what its own set list socom is the final user stating quote the material we use for defense purposes in direct use by u.s. government transferred by means of grants as a military education or training program or security assistance it implies this idea that only united states military personnel will be using it and that it will in no way be probably ending up. hands of rebels because you've got

a brazen terror education education that's for educational part oh is an education all right. people are getting real educated i mean i get what you're trying to. get the. fascinating is when you look at how you know we get to this big massive two point two billion dollars number and this is all from running this is you know above board kind of stuff i mean maybe it started that way but now like you said it's really breaking the rules basically this started back in september twenty fifth under barack obama and then as of may twenty seventeen the pentagon has already spent more than seven hundred million on everything from a k forty seven is rocket propelled grenade launchers mortars and other weapons and ammunition more than nine hundred million is constructed to be spent by two thousand and twenty two as i mentioned earlier the trumpet ministration has requested six hundred nearly six hundred million more that brings the grand total

of the pentagon's intended spending to you know basically these syrian rebels and all these different groups there to two point two billion that's the big catch though tab they're talking about still sending you know enough was an over nine hundred million dollars worth of weapons there by two thousand and twenty two isis is on the ropes you look at all the reports there they're almost done there i mean they're going to sprout up they're not completely vanquished but they're going to they're out there on the ropes they're on their last legs so that between now and then isis spalls and the excuse of to funnel this money you know these guns in there is no longer there you think they're going to stop sending the money if we want to exercise what the military does that might get i call them up you know we just don't have as much war in the world anymore so we're not going to any of those there get batteries we're stuck paying for it because politicians made shady deals with the military industrial complex in places like raytheon and boeing and all of these places they get money by having me as its special interests as far as i'm concerned our military budget is nine. some special special interests at this point

and the pentagon the way they responded. as they always do as if they never make a mistake was according to the report when asked about this sort of unprecedented purchase for the soviet style arms for the syrian rebels pentagon said the pentagon said that it had carefully vetted the recipients adding that the equipment must provide it incrementally and is the minimum needed for the immediate mission at minimum two point two billion to twenty five because. no military things have ever shown up in the hands of terrorists that we've shoveled in there in the last oh we have sorry no it would be quick recluses this side of the picket to me alone using website december twenty sixth to get a promotional story so abraded them in total probably going to award for among other successes barring significant quantities of. the mission for syria they want an internal award to run from somebody guns. we've all

heard the rumors about how our government officials on one long booze filled nights behind closed doors level parties masters fundraisers mysteriously sponsored facts finding trips to exotic destinations but rarely do these stories enter the realm of well sourced news headlines that is until now thanks a.b.c. news which reveals that treasury secretary secretary steve mention a former goldman sachs executive recently requested a u.s. air force jet to transport him and his bride to their european honey their work rest was withdrawn once a prompted some ridicule even among washington state socialites but it does make one wonder if this is just the tip of the iceberg what other extravagances do our taxpayer dollars fund the problems really start close to home with hapless local officials and freshman politicos take for example the case of christie goddess an arkansas county official office assistant who. just pled guilty to spending two

hundred thousand dollars county money on trinkets ranging from diamond jewelry to a pseudo fur rug along with pet insurance for her four legged friend so hog watchers we really are left with only one question to ask what do our esteemed public servants have left of shame or just plain old common sense if you know. a former goldman goldman sachs executive i'll give him a little bit of leeway on this because when you world is so different and the truth is the president's world is very different it's it's where the company paid for these things and it's part of the kickback so is some of this just the culture shock of washington is just so assumed you go hey can i use the goldman sachs i'm getting engaged i'm a big seller i mean i would just assume goldman sachs runs out of this government anyway the you know with the amount of lobbying money they've spent over the years they probably you know didn't bar the judge but you know hey you know they really

are the ones who run this country anyways so it was it was really a big of a shark i mean. what we're doing our. own look goldman sachs is like room this country tragically with the amount of money and control and lead all their former executives getting these jobs like treasury secretary i mean it's crazy plus when you look at the cost of these things tax but i mean the air force first of all the u.s. air force that he was requesting cost about twenty five thousand dollars an hour to run if you don't know how much those things cost that's why private jets are spread so it's not buying them it's running them so yeah so they want about twenty five thousand dollars an hour and keep that into the average u.s. salary is fifty thousand dollars so there's this completely out of touch i mean as much as we can all say you know hillary was out of touch with working america i think there's a lot of administration officials that all star out of touch with her with a little bit about reality of who their. basis as well because that doesn't look

good to your base that's exactly why they didn't like it remember that you like which turned out to be somewhat falls with numbers like what i was like a billion dollars on a vacation and you were like no it was really like two million but you still when she. thought of only two million one normal or devoted. family now is a little out of touch with reality to see well i mean she's the one to her said that instagram picture of her coming off of. air force one with her handbag and you know being. you know has taken tom for it has to scarf out a bit of the people there for the ever stand the working class people i mean really but wouldn't it's interesting when you mention that all starts back at home because it really does on the local municipal level that's where they learn they learn the trade and you realize it isn't these guys who come out of goldman sachs and also my point the last afraid of the guy goldman sachs is just. dumb about social skills or

not understanding how government works but the people who literally are up there going no one will notice nobody care well my father was was mayor part you had city council member at the time like you know having city work crews come out to cut down the guy's shrubs and his front yard you know what i mean like you know totally misusing city dollars in tax dollars and things like that and you see that staten island had a case that was very interesting not that long ago and part of this is you know the demise of local papers that really covered this kind of stuff and dedicated local news services that really cover local elections and local politics on a much higher level but. staten island district attorney's office it was discovered this political appointee that was working there had discovered they had to spend nearly half a million dollars on sports tickets vacations to the bahamas and a collection of exotic knives look we've all been there or laid them already we've seen the knife show on the shopping. but sometimes scott put that company credit

card down and now by then i will taxpayers you know sweaters for pogs. exotic honeymoon donor is actually. going to court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think about topics we've covered the first book on twitter sphere poll shows that are dot com coming up our teams on the powerball brings us of other another report from on the ground south korean tabitha wallace holds back the bail . or us with the election by those that stay to watch the whole. travel across the united states exploring america's deadly love affair with a gun if the bad guy trying to get to one of my family members. he would have.

my book was published in the year two thousand more than hoffa million americans have been killed by guns in the us. this is a middle school we go through drills and we put ourselves in real scenarios it was to see. i decided to return to the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met and photographed those years ago. but we are not. prescribe medication is widespread on the us market frequent cause of death. like everything was ashes my family was literally coming unglued i had actually planned. to commit some site. who has made antidepressants so commonly used

we were doing what the doctors told us to do we were being responsible and what the real side effects. was. what i did was. to move legal drugs. just because. it's. driven in part by hawks style rhetoric from all sides of the crisis tensions on the korean peninsula show subsiding. the council continues to implement harsh

sanctions in an effort to cripple north korea's access to cash a new study revealed that north korea continues to finance a significant part of its budget by smuggling weapons one of its last remaining exports story will never be the u.s. in terms of weapons smuggling meanwhile south of the thirty eighth parallel public opinion and comments from both u.s. and south korean officials are raising the question of providing the south with a nuclear arsenal of their own forcing president moon to weigh in on the issue as the region seemingly races to war unless the diplomats get too comfortable with their traditionally scripted protocols president donald trump continues to comment on the crisis via his trusty twitter abt reliably adding fuel to the nuclear fire from the ground look we turn to our days on your power bill out of seoul south korea. earlier this week i reported on efforts from the opposition liberty korea party to convince washington to deploy tactical nuclear weapons to south korea in

response to reason weapons test from the north well today president moon giant here in seoul ruled that out as an option saying he believes such an act would only excel or rate the arms race on the peninsula speaking today in a televised interview president moon said he does not agree that sending tactical nuclear weapons would improve security here on the peninsula adding he doesn't think south korea needs to develop its own nuclear weapons in order to deter the north however as moon has already demonstrated the option of introducing two different types of ed advanced military equipment to the peninsula is not entirely out of the question considering we witnessed the deployment of sad here very recently the sad missile defense system despite heavy protests poll shows sixty percent of. south koreans did support the act but to get

a different perspective i sat down today with one woman who organized the main demonstrations against the deployment of that and began by asking her why these protests happened around one hundred south korea civil society organization has set up this coalition opposing the deployment of south korea because recently the government is trying to enforce a sort of deployment in a small village in south korea and that is why villagers and also civil society groups and also those support went down to his home jus to protest against assad's deployment we see there are three major problems some thought is employment in korea first of all assad is going to be part of the u.s. and the system the missile defense system so by deploying the south korea that means they will be part of the u.s. people to. eventually threaten tensions in northeast asia. secondly they say that they deploy a thought in south korea to prevent

a north korean missile threats. when you see the distance between north and south korea it's quite close to each other and thought is to prevent a high altitude missile. the shooting so they shoot missiles from north korea to south korea will be low altitude because we are very close that is why you say the fog is not going to be effective to defense the south korean peninsula korea from north korea's threat. lastly the process of deployment of thought in south korea it's not democratic it was not transparent government it did not get any consultation or agreement from the villagers living in as well as there was no discussion proper discussion into politics and the deployment process has been very transparent. deployment in south korea it sounds like might be more about russia and china. north korea oh. we say that this is

a part of the us people. so the official reason of deployment is to protect the south korea from the threats from north korea but then we believe that this is not going to work and that way well there you have it seems believe the escalating tensions on the korean peninsula have much to do with the u.s. pivot towards asia it was a pivot started by obama just how far president trump is willing to take it remains to be seen in seoul i'm on your part pilfer watching the. germany goes to the polls at the end of september for their latest parliamentary elections and many who said the russian interference narrative in the u.s. and france are desperate to pin down the work of social media bias or chat bots that automatically share articles in response to messages but data is showing that not only do automated social media bot seem to be incapable of changing a vote they do seem to be able to discourage a person from voting at all mainly due to the annoying nature of these digital meat

puppets and while many would like you to believe that russian spies invented the chasse shows to keep in power the reality is much less political and far more capitalistic then people would like to believe as the b.b.c. itself points out quote there's no definitive evidence connecting even if they do push pro russian stories to the kremlin but even the search engine light goes has been running a bot a social media bot that explores the web in answers questions about it since the late eighty's and brands like the cosmopolitan hotel in las vegas domino's and i.e. are not only utilizing social media bots to better serve their customers but to give the illusion of popularity to their product a tried and true basic of marketing and salesmanship so politics is a business corporations are people and bots are ok to trick an american citizen in the food that's poison or overpriced footwear but not for a politician to challenge the establishment. it's almost as if the fear of fake

news and scary boxes is just being hyped to distract from the real issue is much like these social media bots do in the first place yeah very good point i mean it's ridiculous to me we were talking earlier today they did mention that like something like i think the numbers like ten or fifteen percent when they're doing this investigation of twitter accounts are automated automated so if you really want to the. scourge of bob's that you know we're told about go to twitter and say no model more automated bugs boom fifteen percent done but as we talk i know why when you protect consumers how to protect control of the lot of these fraud and they're selling ads like these pro would trump websites or person a lot of these even after the women's march time to that there's been a lot of these web sites that put up all these political messages and then they throw up a teacher if they want you know i am a coffee mug and whatever with this thing on it that's what they're there to do but i don't see twitter or facebook rushing to keep us as consumers protected scams no

no because that's where they get a big bulk cash reserve and that's a money flow you're never going to and what solaris about the big crazy thing is at the end of the day you saw this on all sides of the political spectrum overseas and here in the u.s. every country i mean hillary clinton campaigned utilizes both in chat bots and automated social media bots like those criticized for you know meddling in the twenty sixteen election in fact all of them until they're so mad at you i did my homework and university of oxford is internet institute study identified one hundred ninety four thousand tweets from plough pro clinton accounts between nine and twelve of october regarding the second debate by wow massive amounts see all sides use them but apparently have one side uses them then they're evil when we have to stop them and have huge investigations into it ridiculous i mean this is the thing when they you know she didn't do anything to put any discussion. about correct the record which was that super pac started that really just had people

going out and purposely the idea was will pay people to go out and troll people who don't like hillary on line and tell bernie people they have to vote for her the world's going to and that was their brilliant plan but what a lot of people did they were getting paid they were getting paid by the click they were getting paid by the response time in these things so they utilized bots yet nobody you'd get twenty thirty read tweets saying you're an idiot and that you're trying to get trampled elected when you talk about bernie on line and it was all you know it was every campaign uses them every brand is that i thought they were off an ethical as a brand standard ten fifteen years ago and i tell clients it's an ethical but apparently it's ok if a politician does it as long as it's the right politician and the right person they're all and they don't because twitter didn't care when people when women were getting harassed we get raped as we're doing this they don't care they're into anything about it they don't care when consumers get cheated they only care about

their at sales you know they only do that and then when they get political pressure from you know so and so you know in our group or whatever it is i. hope they're right but this is the thing you can't the difference between marketing and propaganda is razor thin only because every single one of the methods that are used in the marketing world which i worked in for over a decade is absolutely the exact same things we learned from fighting propaganda war is a growth wardrobe started back to was. made was a good homework assignment for you or what i mean. because the whole idea of marketing is make a person feel bad about themselves or make them feel that they're missing out on something or in their in the wrong camp they're backing the wrong team and you know all your friends are drinking coors you should be drinking chorus all your friends are voting for hillary clinton so you should vote for all your friends are drinking the kool aid so you should get the kool aid to him. the writer woodside is coming

from there either telling you you're too fat or too thin or you don't look right or you need more abs or they're telling you who you should vote for it's really ridiculous at the end of the day so always remember you're going to this is going to proceed you from all sides pay attention to what you want to check that you're so you know daughter's soccer and everything going to sort of expect everyone to be told it was the internet it's a free for all you right there anyone who believes it isn't a free for alls crazy. we live in a time when failure is our paraded about as a way to minimize a person and their stature as if the act of failing was relegated to one's enemy is alone but as a bestselling author janet finch once put it quote the phoenix must burn to emerge and space x. has proven this by celebrating and even reveling in their failures or as they put it rapid unscheduled disassembly. released this video of its most epic fails and the successes they led to their first rocket failure in two thousand and six

just thirty three seconds after takeoff was caused by a single roasted nut it's many many attempts to land a vertical rocket back on earth well known as you can go future acts there's a future is there but if you think you are musk is wallowing in these failures you'd be totally wrong each failure taught that each mistake open their eyes to a new discovery see true progress can only be made by looking forward with the knowledge of your failures and as humans delve deeper into the world beyond our atmosphere the mistakes will be vital as award winning author neil gaiman's told a group of graduating students at the university of arts and people of philadelphia go and to make interesting mistakes made. mistakes make glorious and fantastic mistakes break rules make the world more interesting for your being here most definitely most definitely great words for us living a good writer. like you know that's all point you have to learn from your failures

at the end of the day you've got to pale big if you're ever going to succeed trust me i know my family knows you know we all know at the end when if that ever yeah you're right i'll venture as never all right that a certain i want to run against democrats rattle the crowd deny that i was there a short period of very remember everyone in this world were not told the world loved enough lies tell you all i love you i am tyrol bunter and i'm top of the wallet keep on watching mills hawks never a great. body. it

is one of the basic instruments to drive an economy but it can also lead to tragedy i did it i took a lying down just i came to god and meant that the text i came and it was. many times have been broken like expensive to the banks got you into trouble and the only big bankers come. on they go on the banks but i just didn't think of. the lost money so it was a back handed down by creditors. people see new future bad things happen you know

you become ill you do job your relationship breaks down you become a casualty is dead a life long or is there a way out those are surely going to bed or no would be right to do to be no more risk to him or. the television station you're watching now in the russian news agency sputnik may find themselves in legal jeopardy in the united states the drive to designate both as foreign agents under the foreign agents registration act is disturbing and it would seem those in power decide who can freely speak. the obama. martial and. islamic states claims it was behind the manchester terror attack by the north front so kill the priest every time a terrorist attack happens all these people are out there screaming isis so bad someone needs to do something against them and for me it was like yeah why don't we

do something. that. is the result of a number. of cases. the challenge of. these channels hafiz whom. is going to. live in misery.

an explosion on the london underground train leaves at least twenty two people injured including police say they are treating the incident as terror related. but just what is lost in memory of the and the baby in the car with the mom and i just hate this very day and saying this is the fifth tara related incident in britain this year alone.
