sputnik internet in iraq was the result of that for four decades for his whole and we see that with this article this so the king to be made to the pretend there to the throne is. is shown as he is a progressive well you know especially for money and friedman it shows himself to be a pretend journalist go ahead exactly you guys are reading this all wrong. this horrid love letter was one of the most heartfelt. examples of of truth holler and right. between they can exist the platonic love that can exist between two men. i think this goes beyond bromance i think what we need to say about this is that i mean thomas friedman is the new york times favorite pro globalization pro empire columnist he is embarrassing the new york times at the very least the new york times could have

gotten some advertising revenue and made saudi arabia pay for this think of and see this friedman even said mohammed bin saw him and instructed me not to write i mean this is a journalist this is a way this is good this is journalism at its very best in the west right on the head well i just love this story about prince mohammed bin so on throw in some of these princes into a deal did you that is. hold them and they started to cough up some money you know mr friedman forgets that also the lebanese prime minister to have an unplanned vacation in saudi arabia for eighteen days one has to wonder how much he was squeezed for it as well a lot of people do and member that the lebanese prime minister has a lot of business interests with the saudis and the embarrassment is that the european press noticed it and basically the french president marker on even the french press admits it was not

a big gain for buck wrong actually they were both humiliated by mohamed bin someone you know the lebanese prime minister saad hariri and the french president and let me tell you that this is not further the first time that western press is enthusiastic about people throwing people in jail and then getting money from them saakashvili did the same thing with shevardnadze family and they had nothing but praise for him now mohammed bin someone you know this and take corruption dr. about which friedman writes that a lot of soldiers who had nothing but if if use of support for their section well if you don't have a future support for it in saudi arabia but you're in trouble here you're not going to be just of all knowledge. and you're going to get down he's walked the phrase the arab spring is a brand a failed idea that most leverage and it was as it was called sunni wintery weather as it is a growth of islamism and attacks on christian orthodoxy across the you know the

middle east and north africa but thomas friedman by referring to mohamed bin solomon's purges and murders to secure the crown for himself as the arab spring in saudi arabia puts the final nail in that tired economist in sydney where i hope our viewers know what i'm talking about victor going to have to go check they have to move gears we're going to talk about the kurds going to finish their apps bring with it let. us it's disintegration in the middle east it's wars in libya in syria in other parts of the each and nothing good and i think we're going to refer all of our readers to robert fisk slater's think better just said their us foreign policy in the middle east doesn't exist anymore well just a small conclusion that bob thomas friedman souce arab spring you know. came on roller skates thomas friedman the supreme columns all aircraft be there off the mistreatment screen a new way in there of the world. with you know with persona and reputation with his

failure in lebanon with his failure in his policy in the yemen with his other failures inside saudi arabia no great p.r. from from friedman it is reputation ok ok gentlemen what's going on donald trump has told his new friend now the president of turkey that the u.s. will no longer be supporting the kurds in northern syria according to according to u.s. . ok i think everything i said was true and now we get a little blurry this is according to our. and his regime in turkey he says that. donald trump promised him in a phone call that he would stop supplying arms to the kurds with which the turks refer to in syria as kurdish terrorists quote unquote here's the problem here is the u.s. has made similar promises to turkey before and they lied and they continued supplying

arms. counts this with twitter tweets once again reiterating that what he refers to as the bringing peace to the mess he inherited there and that what a mistake in lives and six trillion dollars worth and the lesson is most important however. mattis. and the pentagon which are really running military and foreign policy may not be on the same page and according to the wall street journal military spokesman named again military officials have said that they do not they have not received any instructions on this matter and even if they were to stop supplying arms to the kurds they could continue supplying them to the syrian democratic forces which are also so they say. it's a foreign policy of one man look what happened was there was a summit. in sochi of course the americans felt.

russia has slighted them with its own much more successful follow see it in a see it policy if you go to stabilizing that age and not making it more chaotic what the americans were doing for the last six years and actually much longer than that for that cate's and so tom felt that he had to say something to. in that conversation to make him the more i am in the boat to american wishes and have promised him something concerning this isn't your dish but what we what we know about this wife of the americans look at been helping the curate's anyway in that region because the americans want a stake in syria they want to be in a position in northern syria to dictate some of the terms of civil war setting an end to justify their presence there you're assuming that you know it's

a very has according to earlier gone thirteen military bases illegally without syrian permission in northern syria without anyone's permission the unit we're looking at you look at all the usual going to the main areas of the i agree with victor that it was important that the iranian turkish and russian leader met in sochi and in fact they're now deciding the fate of syria and they're deciding what the outcome of the civil war is going to be i think the fate of syria will be of course just decided by syrians themselves but what is important is that this so-called high negotiations has more walked in riyadh into just that committee for negotiations and for the first time the so-called cairo platform and more very included these are the real moderates the people who have been supporting a dialogue with president asad since the beginning ok there are only eight of them there are eight from the so-called national syrian coalition supported by the west

in the media you have a lot of other groups including some that simply were ignored by the west for many years but the block in stake in this is eleven votes so if cairo and more school platforms if they manage to get three on their side they will have a blocking stake in the uk you know locks on them and just one more thing that barked at you know there is nothing more embarrassing if our god becomes a friend or a trump there is nothing more serious. then trumps friendship let me remind you of that in july this year mr trump when saw that the lebanese prime minister was on this visit to washington. raised for resistance book people go to jail that has always acted in four hundred members so it was like brazen know that we just did this or is that we're just ignorant of these things he's not going to. transfer one simple reason he you know that will be there to be understands that tom's words.

was much not there's anything that's words or worth anything either but. the important thing is that yes russia has all these accomplishments on the ground they're trying to move towards a political settlement if they can separate erdogan from al-qaeda which which doesn't seem likely to me and if the but the us game is not over yet when mad dog mattis the secretary of defense who is really running us in military foreign policy according to our president says we're not going to just a what walk away with right now even though isis is military defeated in eastern syria their last territorial acquisitions there have have evaporated and now we have the word out that the leaks that the u.s. military is about to admit that they have far more troops up to for. mark we're going to go to a short break and after a short break we'll continue our discussion on some real news staying with our team .

here's what people have been saying about redacted in this actually just pull along . really show i go out of my way to find you know what it is that really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of r t america is doing the same. apparently better than food. see anybody you never heard of love redacted tonight not the president of the world bank will take time to write it seriously send us an e-mail. this footage is unique because the zoe tribal lands are normally off limits to the public eric's allowed in because he's lived so his personal doctor. people here know him simply as dr eric he's rich and famous some always on the move sailing yacht some flying aircraft

welcome to the wonderful world of blood donation i come here every three weeks to get my transfusion to be specific i receive immunoglobulin that my body gets and support is that it cannot produce itself around the world giving blood is seen as a symbol of generosity and does this because it helps people it's just that one of the side effects is that you know this applies more. to put the money on your car immediately after you get done half of all plasma based drugs today come from private companies and are produced from paid plasma flows come from you know a motor car and give you one of the risks of a donation in it then is proof that the frequency of pathologies is much higher in paid donations and many. if i was lying when i. was over two years

old he will go in the money using the for drugs and who runs the blood business. they get. to live my life yet. they are. welcome i cross talk or all things considered i'm peter lavelle to remind you we're discussing some real news.

ok over the last few days we had movement on the anti russian front in europe taken away well there was this so-called eastern partnership or the e.u. states and there by john armenia moldova belarus georgia you know the former soviet republics which border one of the european union and the you is almost told them they're trying to make an image of russia out of them i mean officially at this summit they said that this is not directed against russia but i think there is a me the prime minister of britain who had a very strong would not do this you know here's what she said we must be open to the actions of hostile states like russia which threaten this european potential and attempt to tear apart our collective strength. you know what i just feel really remarkable about that is that the forces within the e.u.

itself are tearing itself apart no one no one has to push it along all you need to do is watch go ahead you know. somebody will travel at home and there she needs a boogie man to blame it on and it's a good. time is always a good idea because it's really hard limits answering but there's another point you know britain actually kept it worse relationship with the soviet union during the cold war and then the americans so it's no surprise that london to the is pushing for another you know for even more confrontational with russia there is another point of course unlike most other european states and like germany and like italy france britain actually cares very little trade just like the united states has a very little trade with moscow so it has very little to lose and it's trying to push those european countries that do have something to lose to lose that that's what it's there and you know just like the end it's amazing you know you have

a british prime minister trying to dictate european foreign policy and you would negotiate brags that it is a really. remarkably this is a in the british government in this still in this post the period of decline trying to pretend to relevance and foreign matters that they simply no longer have especially after breaks and frankly with brags that i'm simply waiting for them to say oh it was a russian bots fault and we have said they said everybody says there's a list of initially i'm waiting for them to cancel this the eastern european partnership is a more concerning matter what's driving this is an atlanticist ideology it's a geo politically expansionist ideology that the clear is that europe should be all one basically under brussels rule with their value system unity out of the values from lisbon to the year olds and beyond and let's be honest this is an ideology of geo political expansion in the e.u.

is focused on expanding its borders and they're not going to be there not at the tossing a. human being for ukraine as well yes right and they know it's a death now it's. only as this point on the way this summit i think was really. and i will put it because they in the final statement they required member states strategic communications which would be by god again countering russian disinformation that you know you know that you're probably. going to fight a nutty ok and they required ukraine and moldova to fight against russian influence but they didn't promise even the remote possibility of your membership mr john called you opening the summit said that this is not on day gender and what that is in may what she said was it was especially its tone and for me talking about atlanticist ideology she said we should not underestimate the enduring attraction

of western society it to the post soviet state. we should not even underestimate the urine attraction of prince mohammed bin so i want to form a friedman no will fight them attraction should be underestimated but at the rig of course to the people there thousands of lives the ukrainian disaster was actually the result of east. eastern neighborhood should be you if they were the main driver stop them i don't know how you would be an adult said alina just trying to we are the prime ministers of all european country as the e.u. countries have to meet and spend these in there is discussing how to shut. the poor people here i mean you know where the master brought here i want to change gears or something very important was going on with this being the winter olympics will be held in the south korea in two thousand and eighteen in that looks like there are again on the agenda is to push russia so. the confrontation between can you call

the horse you know rose up again between the united states and russia the americans have started pushing these doping accusations and we know it's the americans and it's some of the canadian airlines they are pushing these built in the accusations against the russian olympic team we've seen this in one thousand eight hundred back then they were more honest they didn't blame the soviet union for dogging the just said the world there's a war in afghanistan there's way we're not going to come to moscow and we're not going to let then you or ellis come to moscow and then in one thousand nine hundred ninety eight when he was leaving in the early but today we have a situation where there is really no hard evidence. or a state sponsored doping there's a person who is actually under investigation for fraud in russia his name is. who is now under witness protection in the us he he needed to commit

a crime exactly yes he tampered with the. evidence and now he's participating in all these propaganda exercises against russia. so there is a man here he's been eclipsed yes there's a maximum and minimum programme makers want at this point the next goal is to have the russian olympic team banned from taking part in the olympics just before the presidential elections in russia it is sort of embarrassing russia this way in the media. is to create such a near where sadness fear where russia is going to have to fight for every single athlete and for every single you know sports. competition to participate. if this will actually sort of law is there anything in there like their ability to do any of this of course is that the olympic games there's supposed to be the gold standard of competition well ok and the very best of best

and all i see is again an extension of this propaganda and what kind of winter olympics can you have without a russian team which i think i went through a long picks where western nations went hockey that's where. i mean doesn't it devalue every single gold and silver and bronze medal it devalues it because you'll never know if you were able to compete against the very very best i want to cover some more ground here mark you've been kind of quiet on the olympics tell us what's going on in you. and we're going to get some different opinions here. a bit of what i consider an extremely embarrassing incident in the lugansk republican as it is which is basically just the city of the guns and they're going around yeah one third of the actual guns republic that is free from this west back which forces the nominal president of the self declared republic someone who.

i think it would be generous to say he has the charisma of a weapon. paper towel he has been involved in the internal disputes of powers with the interior secretary in charge of the police cornets and this has resulted in what seems to be a change of leadership in the gun scooter bad kind of direction that we saw on one hand it certainly shows the people of lugansk and there are the authorities there have more independence from russia than the did anyone has been giving them credit for on the other hand it's extremely embarrassing to them and it shows that there's a very chaotic situation there and it bodes ill for you know the west pushing ukraine to try to settle the matter militarily but on the other hand was not really loved by anyone and we may be better off with him gone and someone more charismatic and go and done yet his equivalent in guns might lead to gone through

a little bit more success well i think that. you know the west was very disappointed because the press that they backed that you could point needs to went to russia that's their dream that they all go to russia that's hash tag fake news but it was fake news because point me it's going to represent will go six people's republic at the negotiations can means from now on. i think what happened is indeed not very good but the reason for it i'm sorry but. their actions over the west because they did not ask to have elections they have been denying these places the right to have elections since two thousand and fourteen their idea . is that it would have security which means having ukrainian or u.s. troops on the border the border which means total but kate because since january

ukraine is not supplying even that it turned what they call troops through here to see what the saudis have done to you and then you present what do you want to do. think these are public to get their food and water and electricity from russia not because russia wants to you know to feed them but because he of course got all the supplies you know and if they had elections they would have had a more legitimate government with which such things would not be possible but also please bear in mind that actually the enemy speaks the same language they watch the same television as you did this is a civil war they went to the same school with you so people i did ask not because they are cowards but because it me is the same nation the same people as them there is a little nervousness that are being a very important piece of this in this entire confrontation that we have seen clear out were the worst week now the single person was here it or died and

that's very different from what's happening in ukraine for example in kiev where people get shot where people were politicians we human rights organizations turn a blind directly would be right i wish it were politicians are being weaned and killed and arrested and held without bail and without trial so that's a very stark difference and also we have to keep it in context there this. look on people's republic is were just several million people live there are tens of thousands of people have died over the last few years because the ukrainian forces supported by that were supported by the united states supported by the e.u. care of conducted a massive campaign with bombardments of civil and there's really very. squalls one civilian and interesting and you are saying president poroshenko is killing is exactly and only when we run out of time fascinating discussion many thanks to my

guess your moscow and thanks to our viewers for watching as you argue the next time and remember. rules. to everybody i'm stephen bob. taft hollywood guy you'll suspect every proud american first of all i'm just george bush and r.v.'s to suggest this is my buddy max famous financial guru well just a little bit different i'm not. going to harness the i don't know the up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the good have some fun meet everyday americans. and hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american people.
