the washington post beirut bureau chief about her tweet she disputed the fact that she ever gave praise to the man or his so called journalism i dispute that they gave praise to the journalist or his journalist i pointed out that standing up in a field and continued to talk while explosions and there were no fall around you is brave she still admires his bravery though the mainstream media has a history of becoming in chanted by jihadi affiliated want to be reporters take beloved all karim the story teller when it came to the battle for aleppo people executed it's as simple as that what can i do here in syria blend in the crowd i don't think so am i going to turn my so over to the regime forces absolutely no so what that he's giving a platform to a suicide bomber right at least he's taking all the right boxes they say you have to protect human rights. they support the terrorism so how on earth. ports human rights support terrorism that's that's the bottom line of the

hippocratic they have double standards if this happens in the u.s. mainland would they accept it terrorists to be available terrorist organizations. to say they have good cause of course not the mainstream media has a habit of putting itself on a journalistic pedestal getting the facts right giving balance and using trusted sources but those standards appear to be selective and only if the story fits the cover you've done of r.t. . well meantime an update on syria the fighting is no concentrated there in the province it's in fact the only major area of the country still held by rebel forces we go to screw severe here for you we've tamed of government troops battling hired to realize the al qaeda affiliate for me known as.

the german children's t.v. channels caused controversy by airing a documentary about the relationship between a syrian man and his german girlfriend critics say it fails to challenge the oppression of women is a clip you can make your own judgments. stuff i cannot wear short things always

long things i cannot accept my wife looking like this this is very difficult for me and for arab men in general i do not like other guys talking to my girlfriend she belongs to me i belong to her those are my rules training with us doesn't mean we can't eat pork this is forbidden. this is interesting it's what's written in the qur'an it's now katie it it is not normal meat and so i asked do i really have to eat pork to this will have to live together i stopped eating it one concerned parents who describes herself as a qualified psychologist has written an open letter that calling the program an attack on the emancipation of women goes on to say the channels portraying a repressive relationship in a positive light we got reaction from two guests with opposing views on said program. in multan western european society and certainly in germany there are a lot of stories migrants have lots of stories there are lots of different realities nowadays we're in a climate of changing realities so you know if we have stories about young syrian

people whether they're young adults whether the mine is who are mixing with into mingling with living lives alongside germans or other europeans i think we should be taught to tell these stories as long as those stories are not. seeding discontent hate breeding or trying to be divisive i don't think it's the role of the government or a government agency to to work the children against continuing the values and cultures of their parents i don't have a problem with a mosque or a private organization pushing this sort of thing but you know what kind of taxpayer winds to have his values denigrated and subverted with his own children by the people he's paying me and that is the primary you see this. isn't

life and death situations are called resettling in resettling into the west now you don't get to stop the world and just say i want to get off you when you see like a real thing or idea you said at the top of the hour i believe it was a lie right that guy pretended to be sixteen he wasn't sixteen so the kids were lied to from the very start so you have seven and eight year olds who are watching this romantic thing i'm not even sure that was appropriate ok and so let's start there this is not really about the ages of those people it's not really about freedom of expression or journalism this is actually about saying look at these we had muslims and brown people with funny views and pushing you know it isn't sessions on a vulnerable young this is a i don't even know if this is a real romance this contrived romance. was being deliberately sold to these kids as a way of undermining our setting the table for the undermining of maybe what i believe are the intentions of the parents parents have

a right to continue their family legacies and their culture and this undermines it on the taxpayer dime the conversation went on right here on the head police offices in new york taking legal action against the city's leaders for releasing boldy video to the public. when you don't. see. what. they call. what they do not through only ten space. let alone they. said. you know. that. if you speak french. you.

think. it's. good. to school. with this is weekend new york's largest police union suing its own commissioner and the city's administration over the release of body come videos. this was this has serious implications not only for the safety in g. process rights of police officers but for the privacy and rights of members of the public as well the union claims the release of video from officers body cameras is

a breach of citizens' privacy adding that the administration uses quote arbitron inconsistent parameters and is guided by political considerations now one case in point is an incident last september when a man was shot after pointing a toy gun at police the video was released despite fears it could jeopardize an ongoing investigation one former officer who blew the whistle on police activities believes the current system allows videos to be used for crucially political gain i don't think it's an all of a sudden decision if you actually read the lawsuit in the very first paragraph is states clearly what it wants and all it's asking for in the gist of the complaint is for these body camera videos not to be used selectively for political gain there that's that's all that it's asking for it's asking for a better system for these to be disseminated out into the public and as of right now the two people that the complain is listing against for seemingly abusing the

authority is for murder blasio and the police commissioner itself so the complaint says that it why it's just not selective you videos being removed last year three body cam video is released by the new york police department two of them showing offices shooting and killing suspects one local news channel in fact paid thirty six thousand dollars to show it to chanel footage now the union says the videos are selected to make a point as it would say how do they could actually be from years ago being used to highlight current issues that there were a warning you may find some of the upcoming images here distressing.

hundred. dollars for. her. she think. three point three zero. zero zero zero to. find after.

seeing police officers being pawns in political games or get political games and they need to be protected there in the middle buffer between the law's the law makers the people they're supposed to patrol and police the laws over and then their body camera usage their squad car video footage is all being used either for them or against them as a as a pawn moving game and it's just not fair. it's been more violence in the chain is he in capital trouble continued into this weekend hundreds of people took part in an anti-government rally last night friday unrest has been escalating in chinese of late since new austerity measures were announced at the start of the year.

you may just notice though some of those shots some of those guys in that demonstration holding yellow cards are calling for the tough policies to be scrapped over the past week protesters have set dozens of government buildings on fire that prompted authorities in to deploy soldiers on the streets and countering at least one demonstrators being killed almost eight hundred have been arrested. incidentally marks the seventh anniversary of the big pro-democracy arab spring uprising this weekend. another day. of a donald trump headline this time donald trump announced that he will be attending the world economic forum in davos and that decisions widely being criticized because of his men america first agenda of course during his election campaign well the u.s.

secretary of the treasury defended the moved on the less saying the former is not purely a out for globalists however not everyone is happy to see trump there may be as predicted one zero based group has launched a petition in fact calling for the u.s. president to stay away from davos so far that's been signed by over eleven thousand people they accuse him of racism islamophobia war mongering and attacks on human rights. we will no longer surrender this country or its people to the false song of globalism replace the present policy of globalism with a new policy of americas we are now putting america source. that was is unique in terms of fried swill to stay cold or code should be issues in

the world cannot be so for governments alone our business alone we should is up to you and guide economic globalization and make it possible for all people to benefit from globalization. i don't think it's a hangout for the globalists i think the idea is that you can on the team is going to go over and talk about the america first economic strata treat i'm totally surprised this guy has come out with that remark because it's so unbelievable the major attraction eight year for the international calls not politan elite that have the best politics of the year davos.

by definition is a fat cat because he's been he's a property billionaire and he's very much catering to those people and his results such as they result that he loves going to down in florida so in that sense that we're all going to be the same sort of people. from davos and what's going to happen to a snapshot of life in germany it's literally just how into the last couple of minutes we didn't show it she lived in the what was going to happen but we were half keep an eye on the shot this is berlin literally the last couple of minutes this is a bomb disposal guy has gone up to this abandoned suitcase would be keep an eye on it for about an hour just to see what would happen but ten minutes before they seem to take a photo of a look oh this is a guy doing this every day job to try and keep people safe this is the center of the lane today a sort of big railway station we couldn't take our eyes off this look at the

bravery of this guy doing his every day job goes up to that case carefully so carefully tries to take a picture of it this goes on for a couple of minutes we can't show you it all we can actually show you the moment why don't we give it away when he does open the case but just to give an idea of what people do to keep her safe of course berlin that awful christmas attack that does a terrorist attack back in december twenty sixth never on a high alert but look he's stuck in this case i can tell you it ended ok he is safe it was just a case that happened to leave there and cause all that. confusion should we say today but brave guy we thought we'd leave with that shot good luck to him thanks for watching to you too this is our international next live news update in thirty minutes time it will.

join me every first day on the alex salmond sure i'll be speaking to a guest of the world of politics or business i'm sure business i'll see you there. i think there is indeed a potential to come out of this impasse of implementing the minsk everyman's by recreating the un peace operation this is very sensitive politically contributing countries to believe and surely offer troops it's off to decide to do

. they have confidence in two and a half not. but i'm asked geyser this is the kaiser report perpetual motion machines you've heard about it we've read about it try to create one when you were a sixth grade probably do they exist i don't know maybe just talk to stacy max keiser well it's mad mad world out there everybody's getting on the chain the block chain they're issuing their own coins we've seen kodak coin we see the long island iced tea we're going to have a blotchy in the shares went out everybody's getting out on that and everybody is talking about that craziness but you know this is the entire world is crazy because mad markets s. and p.

has already surpassed year and price targets with only eight days to twenty eight teens here's a chart this little dot on line down here was where the market started the year and this line here is where most analysts predicted the s. and p. five hundred would be at the end of the year but it already hit that with an eight days the markets are matt. well you know if the cost of light is near zero then markets can go to infinity that's the way it works now i hear there's a rumor out there that the chinese are going to stop buying u.s. treasury debt that's been our rumor for hundreds of years that hundreds of years but it's been a rumor for at least ten years and of course there is the. understanding

that china and america it's a symbiotic relationship where china's sense of are all the cheap goods and they buy all the bonds and this goes on in perpetuity but you know there's a lot of tension now between these two superpowers and china has in fact curtailed their bond purchases which would mean that the cost of money goes up because a bond market goes down interest rates go up despite what the federal reserve bank does they can only control the very shortest term on the yield curve they can really control the middle of the long term so if china dumps u.s. treasury bonds and interest rates start going up then there is something called cost for money for the first time in ten years so apple would not buy back its own stock it would be too costly and we're going to get into apple buying back its own stock in these next headlines but first i want to talk about the fact that there's switzerland we need to talk about switzerland this is

a little small country and i'm going to compare it to the fact that here i mentioned at the top of the show kodak coin kodak coin is one hundred something year old company it used to produce you know film for video and for like you take a little snapshot on your vacations and you would take the little roll of kodak film to your you know the print shop and have it printed a few weeks later now their shares have soared over doubling after they announced they're going to come out with their own cryptocurrency so in a market right now it seems first mover to announce that they're a block chain or they have a crypto coin is soaring they're benefiting from it it shows that people have an appetite for investment in anything related to crypto now switzerland you and i have talked about them since two thousand and eight since the financial crisis when they were basically their currency the swiss franc is treated kind. as

a commodity everybody pours into it during bad times their the value of their cars their crypt their coin their coin their currency the swiss francs the swiss franc soars so member we've discussed the fact that they started printing swiss francs and buying shares in companies around the world we said this was insane but they were the first mover there small country and they can do this and they have benefited big time as the first mover to go full insane well switzerland central bank made fifty five billion dollars last year more than apple's profits switzerland got a lot wealthier in twenty seven thousand thanks to a central bank's emergence as a major money manager with a near eight hundred billion dollars portfolio of foreign stocks and bonds so they announced that they had fifty four billion swiss francs and profit which is about fifty five billion dollars they just print the money and buy shares and these

international companies and they made more than apple so apple has to actually go through the whole process of hiring engineers and technicians and designers and producing phones and coming out with phones and doing all this stuff but here is the swiss national bank could be more powerful than apple just printing out money and yeah but it's a repudiation of the entire concept of a central bank a central bank as opposed to there's a lender of last resort or to provide liquidity in case there's a credit freeze the fact that you have such a banks becoming the buyer of first order and that they're printing money to buy stocks is a complete inversion of what their role is supposed to be in the economy and they become a giant hedge fund and they again are matter utilize or maximizing or benefiting from the fact that their cost of printing their wampum their funny money their fear nonsense is era and they're buying real assets with those zero with that zero cost money and that is a nerve on a like situation that. it is not going to last forever because it's going to be

a geo political tensions whether it's china blowing up and saying you know we're not going to buy u.s. treasuries anymore interest rates cannot remain at zero ever yet but again first of all i'm saying that kodak coin for example kodak is not something that you and i being having been in the bitcoin industry for the past seven eight years when it was only two dollars a coin you wouldn't have thought of kodak as a thought leader or innovator in the crypto space and yet they were the first mover and one of the first publicly listed movers into the space and they found if it. the swiss national bank in a market of other global central banks saw all those bigger central banks the u.s. federal reserve the bank of japan their european central bank going crazy lowering interest rates driving costs down and they as a smaller country a little tiny entity of just

a few million people compared to three hundred and something million people under the e.c.b. three hundred million people in the u.s. phones or went got a first mover advantage whether or not the u.s. central bank whether or not the european central bank will be able to buy shares in apple as swiss the swiss national bank has done swiss national bank owns millions of dollars worth of shares of apple by the way that's part of their portfolio so whether or not the u.s. government could do that without causing hyperinflation i don't think that they could do it like the swiss national bank has done and all of these mad markets whether it's kodak coin or the s. and p. five hundred already hitting near and estimates in the first eight days you know this could be the sort of spiral the vortex the craziness that you know these eight years ago or nine years ago was set in ten years ago back in two thousand and eight when these central banks started going insane is this is finally they're finally getting the inflation that they want but i don't know whether or not it will be out

of control well you do have some pressure on the u.s. dollar world reserve currency is trending down if you see that break ninety on the index you know they're going to have a freefall which would be a catastrophic event but look at the swiss national bank you know you have to compare them to let's say nestle corp nestle corp will buy a reservoir of water a public utility of water from the public domain for nothing and then they'll sell in bottles for a markup and they'll claim their business genius men even though they're basically just stole of the public's utility the public's. ok the public is like deranged by it the public is also now like clamoring to get. raw water from a company and california raw water means it's not treated on the go like this and take it out of the river and give it to you and there are all sorts of bugs and viruses and bacteria in there water people want authentic disease an organic authentic disease

a set of virtual cyber diseases yaz the mind by what they're actually they want to have authentic gastro intestinal pop problems that are real you know the fact that the new york times even covered this story of people buying raw water for like twenty dollars a gallon said to people clamoring to get their hands on any supply left so now it's like sixty dollars a gallon people want it even though the new york times said look at these imbeciles who are buy raw water and everybody's like i want to be the figure of the soul of all so you know there's always a bigger fool at the table apparently but speaking of crazy and this is something you kind of predicted a long time ago and speaking of you know swiss national bank earned more profit than apple well apple to take twenty five percent stake in apple incorporated apple could buy back twenty five percent of its stock over the next three years as it brings home for in cash according to a new analysis from u.b.s.

analyst steve in milan of it he reports this to barron's that buying is likely to provide support for shares as i phone unit growth slows and services and other businesses play a more important role so yeah right addicted this well yeah i mean they're buying back their own stock what they've got that job hundred fifty billion or so overseas that should have been taxed as income at some point but instead it was not taxed at all now they're getting a sweetheart deal from a company ministration to bring that money back late is it too is going to create infrastructure create factories create jobs going to buy back their own stocks and reaching shareholders and ciders and executives again a massive ponzi scheme called apple computer apple computer. as a ponzi scheme berkshire hathaway or their biggest shareholders that's a ponzi scheme the stock market's upon his game the bond market is certainly a ponzi scheme the us dollar is the mother of all these games but coin is the only thing that's not a ponzi scheme again so the tax cuts. makes it more advantageous to book these profits over here in the united states bring this two hundred fifty six billion

dollars from overseas to here but they're also predicting in this report and barron's about apple buying twenty five percent of his company so it's going to be like twenty five percent shareholder they're going to be the most serious companies are telling themselves private asked if that's taking themselves partially private if you give these corporations free money to buy back their own stock at no cost if you allow jeff bezos to buy a whole foods without any cost to him whatsoever it's a creative it goes on the bottom line the day one it's zero cost is just grabbing up the well that is when i say like swiss national bank has zero cost to print swiss francs because especially this no longer the world is you know not really no longer put on very little to do to listen they hear they're saying that apple's going to spend an additional one hundred seventy three billion on top of the already you know several billion that they were doing on share buybacks so most of it's going to be front loaded into this year basically they're doing mike brown's bottom gordon brown when he sold all the u.k.'s gold announced it to the world

we're going to sell our gold drove the price down got the guarantee lowest price for the united kingdom here apples guaranteeing the highest price ever paid for apple to buy these hundred seventy three billion dollars worth of shares they're saying that this is going to be front loaded into twenty eighteen most of the share buying will happen this year and those of us who are not participating in this ponzi scheme called central bank apple computer warren buffett trifecta of fraud are going to be put out on to the surf slave sensation waves yeah we're going to be surfing. surfing on the ups and downs of the stock market manipulation of their fake money and their fake buttons well i did just go surfing on the ocean of free money as it comes crashing in on the on the other sure. all right more coming your way after the break don't go away.
