neighboring street all but destroyed the street across rubble the street over there . is the same story wherever you look. there are still countless bodies very of the all this rubble and no one knows how long it will take to get. at me show you west mosul now a wasteland the city for all intents and purposes has been erased and there's little or nothing left so it's no surprise people don't want to return and they would rather live in tents on one issue i was really excited to return to my home
12:31 pm
and see it now when i see it in list dates i wish i'd never come back. and i feel completely destroyed i don't feel like coming back to this home i've lost all hope of living here after seeing all this devastation. this was iraq's second largest city founded thousands of years ago and it's been a pillar of religion architecture and culture ever since its reconstruction will never be the same if it even happens and its population will be massively diminished official sources the iraqis in the us have all three understated the sheer volume of civilian suffering and death a thousand they said investigative journalists put the figure around ten thousand a senior health chief in mosul who didn't want to be filmed told us the number is
12:32 pm
much higher. this book alone contains the names of seven thousand dead victims i have four or five of these every day we got two or three more bodies victims of new explosions. so where does a rock even begin and who will help foot the bill the answer is simple if given the choice no one it will take tens of billions of dollars to rebuild mosul alone and there is a more pressing issue to deal with first the bodies the iraqis hoped the u.s. led coalition would help resurrect mosul since its bombing campaign created much of this destruction the americans in bluntly said no we freed you will spend two hundred odd million dollars fixing the pipes but aside from that you are on your own as a call and we are not in the business of nation building or reconstruction we must
12:33 pm
ensure that our respective nations precious and limited resources are devoted to preventing the resurgence of isis and equipping the warring torn communities to take the lead in rebuilding their institutions and returning to stability and the civilians in mosul the desperate and hopeless few that have returned have nothing. to be going to school. not. what else is there to do in mosul. but that if. that was more of the of their own the unthinkable revelations of the situation on the ground in mosul off to months terrorists rule. has requested comments from organizations about the city's plight but so far we've received no response we did however hear from an international human rights lawyer and peace activist. mosul was destroyed
12:34 pm
first by a group of non-state actors that came in took over the city and then by the iraqi authorities and i should say even before that it was destroyed by foursomes that twice invaded iraq i think they have not only a moral but also a legal obligation to be involved in its reconstruction but i think that it is one of the most striking examples where the allies who have been engaged in violence against the people there for more than two decades have really forgotten the people that the allegedly were coming to save or at least to assist then i think that if we're going to have any sincere and you have any credibility in the like to call humanitarian interventions they need to be humanitarian in those instances and ensure that the people are provided a better life than what they had before in this case that has not been the case and i think that's quite unfortunate throws a political ization staying in iraq human rights watch is reporting that hundreds
12:35 pm
of families are being forcibly displaced the group claim the rock officials are rounding up people suspected of having a family that joined i so we spoke to the organizations senior rock about the findings because security forces carried out a sort of a major sweep operation and you know gratian they went to the homes of at least two hundred thirty five family is what i said to have relatives who joined isis. and it is simply told them that they were going to be taken away they were security screened some were beaten and then we were brought to account against their well human rights watch say two hundred twenty families arrived at one iraqi camp alone in a period of less than three weeks all of them all from villages west of the city of kirkuk is how they described what happened to them i begged them to let me go home and because my other children but they wouldn't let me. why does it feel safe in
12:36 pm
targeting us and robbing us like this because we're seen as feminists. from human rights watch are going thinks this amounts to collective punishment these roundups and force displacement is being done by iraqi forces forces the answer to iraq's government you know what one can only presume that this is happening with the consent of the government even if it's not as strict government policy and therefore it begs the question of how the iraqi government can talk about any process of reconciliation if its own forces are participating in this kind of a campaign when i talk to security forces and account management and all of them were the first to admit these families these individuals have not committed a crime they haven't done anything wrong in the eyes of the iraqi legal system and the only reason they're being treated this way is because they have had a relative who joined isis now that is collective punishment.
12:37 pm
explosion has hit the u.s. city of philadelphia worth street celebrations turned violent following american football's biggest game of the year underdogs the philadelphia eagles won their first ever super bowl title against the new england patriots. and you can see smoke rising from the crowd a person was also filmed shooting from what appears to be a flare gun there have been reports of rowdy crowds turning over cars and damaging infrastructure riot police were deployed to calm the revelers our mosque in germany has been forced to stop following its call to prayer we hear from some locals and other experts after this short break.
12:38 pm
the u.s. is losing into a number one the climate denier is precluding them from the dissipating in this new economy number one. the effects of the climate change and why the catastrophes the global you know migrants that are the result of it all this other problems are hurting the u.s. economy on the other side of the trade so you've got a double. teams
12:39 pm
national courts in a small german town has banned the muslim call to prayer from its local mosque softer an elderly couple complained but not just about the noise it's a kind of vocal chant in a tone that has a disturbing effect on us but we are mainly concerned with the content of the call this puts above our god of christians and as a christian who grew up here in a christian environment i can't accept that. well the mosque was forced to stop its call to prayer after complaint back in two hundred fifty however the court only came to its final decision a matter of days ago could still be appealed we went to the town and west germany to hear exactly how residents feel about the latest move. to move the ban in general is an example at the time the court examined whether the noise was ordered
12:40 pm
from a distance to those not listening for it the people here said it wasn't possible to hear it. as a finished person for me is quite separate from the issue of religion i'm very much for religious freedom but the people who live around there are certainly affected if the cries call out loudly in the area as they always do also there are quite a lot of mosques i don't know exactly how many mosques there are in any country in total but i think there are enough. and we spoke to a christian and muslim activists for their reaction to the ban. i think is of course a mosque has can can discuss the i think making the noise a little bit less discussing with the neighbors and and then themselves say they were not going to do it but just. asking the law and society to forbid it this is a thing i think mr green doesn't know that europe has a history not only of christian and and but there are also history of muslims the
12:41 pm
muslims who are in spain longer than the catholics who have bosnians by the turks in europe so this is. a place what a lot of people believe as nonbelievers those with faceless with no faiths would live the united kingdom version of the good old of europe is founded on the bible as the lord jesus christ as the absolute foundation of our way of life. and to bring in a foreign god such as the start of the god of islam is what this is really all about and it's about the. spread of islam over europe. and islams attempt to dominance in it and it always has been an expansionist religion for when it started the first notice like every religion it is but it is not makes no bones about it and that is why it has to be another way of the islamophobia thinking mr greene is doing and still celebrating the kickoff of muslims in spain you know in austria
12:42 pm
there and their faith they say stomach face was recognized since one thousand two hundred more than one hundred and and more than one hundred years it's nice but the empire as an official faithful in the idea of the religious freedom in muslim countries is complete rubbish will even allow to have a bible in saudi arabia for instance and christians are persecuted in egypt in pakistan in malaysia in mauritania any muslim that for you today was not extradited to find a christian community and. the. we're being actually. the victims of our own tolerance in europe now that's true or not true even the indonesian ambassador here is that this is the largest muslim countries a christian who is here even in nigeria there was a christian president if you go to dubai if you go to qatar if you go to kuwait if you go to oman if you go to all these arab countries if you go even to belize and so that's really rubbish to say it's an out of the bible there is no churches. in
12:43 pm
other news the u.k. court has ruled against the extradition of an alleged british actor to the united states laurie lovers accused of cyber attacks against the f.b.i. and among other organizations the u.k.'s lord chief justice said extradition could put the hacktivists life risk for more on this we can go to. the court today for monday's trial polly we understand the court applauded the decision what happened. yes very much sorry that when the judge read out the verdict the applause and the celebration from larry love t.v. was so loud that the judge had to remind them all that this was a course of laura not fear so they were certainly very happy scenes of celebration as they walked out larry love was wanted is wanted in the u.s. for charges of cyber hacking is accused of hacking into u.s. government websites the f.b.i.
12:44 pm
nasa the federal reserve among them stealing huge amounts of data and his extradition had already been approved back in two thousand and sixteen saying this appeal was really the last chance saloon for larry love his legal team have argued all along that it would be dangerous to extradite him to the u.s. for a number of reasons but mainly because he suffers from asperger's syndrome and he has a depressive illness so he was at a high risk of suicide and they worried that the u.s. incarceration system wouldn't look out for. his wellbeing couldn't guarantee his safety essentially so very pleased we got. him coming out holding hands with his girlfriend and his family and he was rushing off to a press conference but we managed to catch him for a few words take a listen to what he had to say. and very trying for. a very long. week we can exercise the sovereignty of our legal justice system he can have
12:45 pm
a reasonable expectation that they'll be treated humanely and if they have engaged in criminal behavior that they will have a chance it's. very it's the recognition of. the effects of having. having to pressure how somebody be treated by the criminal justice system it was very unfortunate the prosecution tried to paint a mental health conditions. made up fixed. to the stigma of people with them so the suspicion is an. administration of criminal justice and also for the humanitarian accommodation of people whose brains work differently so. lots of people were watching the results of this appeal hearing because it was the first real test of a brand new law or essentially many of us will remember the case of gary mckinnon he was wanted in the us for very similar charges hacking charges he has
12:46 pm
a similar health condition he has autism back in two thousand and twelve the reason may when she was still home secretary managed to block his extradition to the us but since then that law has changed and it's no longer the government that has the power to do this but it is the courts the judges the inside here and this was the first real trial run of this new law it seems to have gone in favor he was very pleased with what happened seeking out here earlier as well and he said that he hopes that his case is that. a precedent so that no others have to go through this legal live legal limbo deal the way that he has i mean this family have always said that he's very happy to face the music but they wanted it to be a british and it looks like that british band is on its way because his legal troubles on tell you that he now faces trial here in the u.k. . and interesting what you've heard this about the president quality how the law is
12:47 pm
going to impact you know another notable whistleblower case as well potentially facing extradition pauli worker there bring us the latest. we have more news coming up at about thirty five minutes from now though that set for myself on the team here at all to see you again soon for more global headlines . oh no appetite i mean for conflict is very very low these days and public service much more eager to see economic improvement than they are to actually get into a fight with the neighbor or or with other powers in the world. despite it's time to let history deceive us union you know who's dominated international
12:48 pm
sport however this is not about the motives of those champions from the. sort of you know. when the children number there. are more moved there with the ball for me just remember two three brothers describe you lose for the way you look there's the roosters there for you if you were the first some of your limpy team of nine hundred fifty two when you did see each of us has concentration camp prisoners and from slime soldiers sort of different but even that it's good to be here with corruption because you know much more than you should give me because you're more things that you're in for the money for through shall go in to get on the floor with you if you think that here we're going to go with. the measures you'll push through for through personal or. into shows you move over when you do when you're at the national borders and to do that in your world

12:50 pm
hello and welcome to crossfire all things considered i'm peter lavelle the memo has come and gone but this controversy is far from over the political bias of the deep state has been revealed and the illegal activities exposed if anyone will be held responsible. crosstalk in the memo i'm joined by my guest mark sloboda he's an international affairs and security analyst we also have a cure all leverage he is a political analyst as well as a leading expert at the center for actual politics and we have dmitri bobbitt she is a political analyst we spoke nick international our german cross-talk rules in fact that means you can jump in anytime you want i was appreciate we're going to talk about this is kind of a post-mortem here might be a very long when depending on how advance unfold here let me just give real quickly for our viewers here are six takeaways most important take away is from the memo
12:51 pm
that was recently released by the g.o.p. regarding the pfizer war televised can also intelligence committee hillary clinton and the d.n.c. hired foreign spy to concoct a fake dossier on trump. the clinton campaign in the d.n.c. gave fake dossier to obama d.o.j. an f.b.i. the department of justice and f.b.i. knew that the dossier was fake and politically motivated the department of justice and the f.b.i. present fake dossier to face a court to get trumped wiretap we're talking about carter page in this case the d.o.j. in the f.b.i. don't tell the pfizer court that the dossier is fake and from political opponent and the face of court. fraud into ordering wiretapping the trump campaign again quarter page here. this is victor this is devastating ok devastating there is well six smoking guns at the very least and from what i understand this is i hate
12:52 pm
using the term tip of the iceberg but what. the intelligence community made available through the you know the white house was approximately ten percent there's a lot of underlying evidence that can be released that was based on these six points look at the irony of the situation and the american intelligence community accused russia of interfering via the election process in the united states while in the aleksey there is not a single fact. there is no beast there is no factual basis for saying that at all russia did nothing to fear the american actions but the american intelligence community it was a case certainly directly interfered eagerly unconstitutionally interfered in the american political process and this memo outlines parts of that interference not not all of it we know of instances. where they interfered and it shows how what the american intelligence community is playing in the american
12:53 pm
society and unconstitutional you know what's really interesting to me when i read the four pages plus the one and a half pages from the white house i have to part is all in the back we basically got it all right yeah basically connecting all of the dots that's what i want to say is actually there's very little new here very little we have been saying on the confirmation for a long time it is a partial confirmation because of course the democrats the f.b.i. a whole host of former deep state officials from the liar liar james clapper on down came out and declared that releasing this was a pack of democracy attack on security national security the heavens would fall well. i think the u.s. is still there. last time i checked anyway after that you know the interesting thing was and the flipside of what mark is saying is that you know it was a threat to national security it's an affront to our intelligence agency to have
12:54 pm
law enforcement you know use it used to be the liberals that used to be very you know worried about law enforcement everything is flipped over right now ok but the interesting thing is immediately after it was released i don't know if anybody these liberals or c.n.n. or m s n b c actually read it but then they decide it's. nothing to see here move along how could be within one new cycle it was a threat to national security then move along exactly to see here i think what we should prevent from happening here is this let's move on attitude prevailing thinking because we understand where it comes from trump is basically leading the same polish just now hillary clinton and obama have been lead and before trump was elected right he struck at syria he published this all for nuclear posture review right so he is basically moving the country towards a war movie and humane it towards destruction so now they are prepared to let it be
12:55 pm
and i think what they're prepared to lead to be for a very different reason to picture i mean you have the former director of the f.b.i. i mean i watched the hearings he perjured himself repeatedly. and i'm sorry let's make sure you know i wonder what mike flynn was he watching or did he read the memo that paul mann afford read the memo to the read died it ok but we have a whole cast of characters at the d.o.j. in the f.b.i. that perjured themselves in front of committees under oath where there's. a you can't you can't walk away from their job is going to do it well i mean i'll go much director of national intelligence did it twice. and the other occasion. is james called me going to twitter and frankly proclaiming himself a victim. allied to the victims of julie mccarthy code me or the
12:56 pm
rosen stand these are the loving descendants of joel and see that when i put the chain can i put the cherry on top ok gentlemen a headline from the new york times the feeling new york times trumps unparalleled war. on a pillar of society law enforcement i mean this is orwellian i mean from what i read of those four pages that there the deep state is that war with the democratically elected government of president of the united states that is the assault that's going on right now this is so duplicitous it is so hypocritical to hitler and i want to the biggest accusations is it's starting to undermine americans trust in their intelligence community out of i don't know if my kids need to know all of you out there but i've been doubting our intelligence community since oh the iraq war since the gulf of tonkin. gulf war from the libyan genocide
12:57 pm
i've you know i mean down to the spanish-american war and. even ships in fact if i could for a minute about that for intelligence court the family deals with the whole reason that we're sending up to the court was to prevent the abuses that the american intelligence community. did in the seventy's in the sixty's in the fifty's so post post with our great america decided to create this act and the what do we see now we see that first it will let's go back to how this court functions if we look at the record of this court last legislative almost every single last ninety nine point three percent seventy nine point eight percent ok this is a secret court that hears secret arguments about how our intelligence community wants to spy on american citizens they approve ninety nine point eight percent of cases brought against it no no negative no credible oversight or it's
12:58 pm
a rather special court authority it's a rubber stamp secret court and they're spying on american citizens and this is they they bring obviously fraudulent evidence in front of it they've looked this is the important game and we think we know what you're right but i mean let's let's let's it's let's finish it. the threat here they're spying on american citizens a citizen who is working for a political campaign for a presidential candidate i mean this is the this was the whole reason the phys accords were put up to make sure something like this would happen and actually because of the way it was set up we have and we have the rest of them they know how to go around let's be perfectly clear about this they know one of these people seriously believe that carter page or george papadopoulos these bumbling inturn idiots were russian agents this was an attempt to use their bumbling to get intelligence wiretaps inside the trump campaign it's true well what i find
12:59 pm
especially astonishing about this whole story is that feisal warrant was based on a story written by michael isikoff. and why do you want to get the story from the facts took us five years from christopher stevens so the story is that d.n.c. campaign paints pace christopher steele so that he would dig dirt on trump like heem going to mosque or hotels meeting with prostitutes there sleeping on obama's former badly you know in a hotel there and michael isikoff takes an interview from this guy and then finally decides oh the whole possible fits together that there is a conspiracy against the night that's all you do also know that the face of court was not made aware of the origins and the author of this dossier ok what is there not being in there also we're not told this article that was in the yahoo newsletter was also my suggestion i think i could correct them very
1:00 pm
easily you know let the farce of court just to read my stories about russia i think we should say by. the evidence was so should it be that they were in this rubber stamp court one said no had to be light to get the word and it's that bad and it's that. we should stress this again this was the evidence put forward to wiretap an american citizen who was working for trump's campaign or had recently stopped working and. in the case of of quarter page that when it was renewed that they not only use this dodgy opposition research tabloid scandal news from a foreign spook that the u.s. intelligence community itself says has minimal. meaning it's it's complete you know horse fodder. but to back it up they used are ya who.
