elsewhere in the country so i believe that so far the syrian government to refrain from and turning into a direct clash with the united states army in northeastern syria but in the future i believe that. as an occupying force. the syrian government will deal with the united states army as an occupying force that might be armed resistance to this occupation well mr kim i want to see if follow you on this on this line you're going within twenty four teens of course we all heard the western officials in chorus crying that assad has got to go when it appeared that assad wasn't going anywhere the course not only changed to i still has got to go and now the pentagon looks to dig in even further in syria even after the main defeat of ice or what is the pentagon's real agenda in syria. well the real agenda in syria for the pentagon and the united states is to control

the middle east and obstruct any access by eurasian powers. russia iran and china from having access to the mediterranean this is the real strategy in the middle east for the united states as part of the greater scheme of structuring these eurasian powers from having free access to maritime trade routes and all other claims are mere pretexts whether to fight terrorism or to fight isis or to promote democracy in that region this means pretexts for the american political agenda in the region so that's why i believe that i said was created by the united states it was restructuring of form of the paramilitary group that was used in iraq which is blackwater and i believe that there were too many reports in the western media about that. but

i want to be very very quickly if i may just you're leading us down a road here i want to ask you about i'm solo one time some analysts have compared the so-called war on terror in syria to that of a strategic deception create the problem create a solution your thoughts on that. yes i believe so i believe because since the second world war the united states couldn't or great powers couldn't lead direct conflict between each other so they reverted to. war by proxy and this was fine q. and by the united states after the end of the cold war using paramilitary groups or sub state entities to promote its own agenda they were the ones to promote al qaida they were the ones to promote other groups in the middle east and afghanistan and now they are using the same method in order to promote their geopolitical

agenda and jamal wakim international relations professor at the lebanese university very interesting thanks for your time. today the body of russian military pilot romana phillipe off was brought to his hometown of war on ash a major died fighting in syria after his plane was shot down by militants. to get here we had to walk through a crowd of hundreds of people many of whom were holding flowers as you can see behind me hundreds of people are now standing by the gate waiting to get inside it really seems like part of the city is here to take part in this ceremony the pilot's plane was shot down on saturday in the northwestern part of syria which is still controlled by the latest incarnation of the terrorist group the real month try to remain in the aircraft as long as he could he then managed to eject from the plane only to find himself overwhelmed by a terrorist the pilot who supported

a few people has shared the details of their last communications his voice remained calm when i. see them was the commander's reply and then he said so evenly as if it was something ordinary on imports and i got hit hard the right is on fire moving the lift slowing down to about twenty seconds. then he ordered me to gain altitude of course i didn't do it to leave my command is the last thing i would do i always tried to have his back during flights and now i have to do it on the ground while he was fighting i stood there and made several attacks to vehicles that were getting closer to the. touchdown i stayed until the fuel was extremely low i barely made it back to the airfield roman had waited for the terrorist to get

closer to him and only after that he decided to detonate a grenade taking his own life with capture he would manage to shout this for our lads when he did that shortly after the incident russia's defense ministry released several details of his life roman left a wife and a four year old daughter behind he was an experienced. violated was not his first time serving in syria and he was part of the dozen successful military operations and he was only thirty three years old when his life tragically and but he died as a hero fighting terrorists on his own. the story of the pilot's bravery has not gone unnoticed he received this letter from a veteran u.s. servicemen offering support and asking if there was a fund collecting donations for his widow and child and we've asked the russian forces if such a fund is being created we're still waiting for clarification but the man who wrote that letter though steve gave ati his thoughts on major phillipa story he knew

what it is chances were and he knew what he had to do. and he knew he was never going to be captured and that's a decision he had to bake. very hard decision to back but. actually. he did what he had to do it was a personal decision. he knew what could happen to him he knows what can happen to other troops. and what has happened to his comrades these are very important people to you. and you do most anything for them . even risk your life he had to die like this. here. i wonder if i would be brave enough to do what he did. he was he was

a good we showed you a. support for women's rights and gender equality as well picking up pace online with a number of prominent hashtags but when it comes to feminism people can't seem to agree on what's ok to say and what's not is poorly boyo. are you a feminist if you put on a muslim headscarf or on the contrary if you take it off and even button it according to the internet it could be either you just have to choose your hash tag that says world hejab day that's the one that promotes women's rights to wear a headscarf it's called big in the u.k. and the u.s. job has nothing to do with oppression it's a feminist statement that many men i'm going to be women this piece of clothing is the very epitome of oppression but then there's also the no head job movement the one that condemns muslim headscarves as a form of oppression is especially relevant in iran right now where women are being

arrested for costing off that veils and the anti had jab brigade is outraged. i have you know job to. earn to earn. but if you thought religious dress was a minefield or simply that it doesn't apply to you beware because language is getting political too in case you weren't ofay with the new rules using the word mankind is kind of a foe par that's precisely what the canadian prime minister justin trudeau tried to explain to a female journalist who used the word in a question to him little did he know that an even bigger if opar no matter how much

of a feminist you are is mansplaining to a woman that she shouldn't be using the word mankind but don't worry the internet told him maternal love is the love that's going to change the future of mankind so we're like you to look what we're going to see people kind not necessarily mankind . there's lots of consecutive years ahead of him in this as a man but here's a simple one don't interrupt.

the. writing. by. people calling. but what about formula one bosses who presumably thought they were acting in an enlightened and post weinstein manner when they fired all their grid girls those are the promotional models who traditionally adorn the racetrack there's a support the band say that being a pit babe objectifies and sexualizes women but try telling that to the grid girls many of whom are moving up said trying to think up a new profession i've never had even the slightest hint of feeling exploited. i've wanted to be that i worked hard to get that they paid me well to do the job and i saw my outfit before i agreed to do it i knew i was wearing i knew what was

expected of me the world has gone completely mad. i don't see a problem with promotional work tools we all do it by choice and we're not forced into the was and goals apply for the job it seems these days you come right perhaps all the hashtags could now be replaced with one much less binary one something like freedom to choose so it was cool in new york is sparking controversy by ditching a traditional the ball the annual father and daughter dance they're doing so because officials don't want to upset the transgender debate or trying to dress the story in a moment. all to see we have a great team but we need to strengthen before the freefall world cold and you're

back to been a legend to keep it so it's at the back. in one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and i'm hoping to bring some of that waiting spirit to the r.c.c. . recently i've had a lot of practice so i can guarantee you that peter schmeichel will be on the best fall since my last will come from that steroids were three. thousand zero zero zero zero he did rush out. twice thrice. left left left more left ok stuff that's really good. for.

thank you joining us here on r.t. a video has surfaced online showing young children in libya staging a mock execution. the boys in that in that clip there reportedly under the age of nine they appear to be mimicking overall life execution which happened in benghazi this january and that video which we are not going to show you a gunman is seen shooting blindfolded prisoners in front of a mosque where a deadly bombing had just taken place and our panel of guests contrasting views on the story the trauma experienced by kids growing up in a war zone what we know is just what can be do you know actually we've seen actual

videos where children has been used to behead people in syria and in iraq and iraq as well we heard stories when terrorist groups using the young people to be a spy on their families the individuals that are actually carrying out terrorist attacks and in particular suicide attacks often have been escaping chaotic. but actually that the gauge will with what we call extremist material it doesn't happen until many years down the line you know and often substance misuse was a big problem and if we understand that the reasons that people engage in substance misuse is because of childhood trauma and if we understand that if we've got a large number of young guys children who have experience that kind of trauma what could they is it possibly be partially a clue for who they started out or not the whole truth the root cause is not that

you know first of all if you look into the history of islamist terrorism recently in a country where i was mauled by like this you will see most of the terrorist attacks in the capital of dark i was carried out by youths who in fact came from affluent families they had a very good life in fact they were brainwashed by this islamist terrorism not only by videos but by theological understanding of it and when it comes to children children are not being able to be children because of the upbringing they are getting because they are of the islamic extremist ideology it in fact denies you of any kind of creation that children can will need to grow up with all that happens in all the culture is not there our some of the occasion in some countries in the educated the the younger kids on radicalization only extremism right from the young age so we that's what we call them for because from regulations to prevent such a behavior even on online videos or what you know we have to regulate the education

curriculum some of the countries require to be looked into and see how the education curriculum is being taught in schools. a school in new york has sparked controversy by ditching a longstanding tradition the annual father and daughter dance it's done so it has to comply with guidelines on trans gender students here's artie's caleb. it's a longstanding tradition of family bonding but the annual father daughter dance set for this friday at this staten island elementary school in new york well it's been called off it's been told to waltz off the stage because it violates the department of education's gender neutral policies gender based policies rules and practices can have the effect of marginalizing stigmatizing stereotyping and excluding students whether or not they're transgender all gendered non-conforming for these reasons schools should review such policies all gender based policies must be

abandoned unless they have a very clear educational purpose now not all schools are complying with the new guidelines but this one is angering many parents school councils daddy daughter dance because of gender policy saying it might make some people feel left out you know our dads in daughters feel left out really and as the father of a little girl there's just flat out ticks me off and it takes a lot of do that but seriously the madness has got to stop it separately s. and nine this is why i am convinced now more than ever that. i can only hope that some diligent fathers take it upon themselves to organize their own father daughter dance as a fundraiser perhaps this will show the leftist n.y.c. school system you don't need their anti family propaganda mindset local l.g.b. t. activists applauded the school's decision to do the dance father daughter dance is inherently leave people out not just because of transgender status just life in

general these can be really uncomfortable and triggering events have you think about it there are many different policies that could actually be triggering for example the authors of the educational policy they listed gender based graduation gowns are close for graduation pictures now the dance will be taking place in march but it will be for quote kids and caregivers of all genders and won't have the catchy daddy daughter dance name but officials are hoping that it catches on caleb mop and arty staten island so that us wrap up this program for this hour here on r.t. international at the helm in half an hour my colleague nicky aaron with more of your world wide. across europe municipalities are taking their water supply back from private companies to meet this is a simple song on events like company elsewhere they invite private companies to

take over their utilities anybody tell us the rope was allowed to miss you guys you got to be violent to pick him up because. this is. just because. of what you man but the lift hill brought up locals are ready to stand up for the basic human right of access to water it's about water but it's also over much more than war it's about the hurt and the redistribution of our weather service their debt downwards they want to. hey everybody i'm stephen bob taft hollywood guy you know suspects every proud american first of all i'm just george washington and r.v. and to suggest this is my buddy max famous financial guru and well he's a little bit different i'm not a. good one i know no one knows up with all the drama happening in our country i'm

shooting the road have some fun meet everyday americans. and hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american people which. i am an extra as or this is the kaiser report we are going to delve into the outer shell the inner shell of the mega shell in the metal shell of who we are who we is going on stacy herbert obvious here stacy herbert max kaiser how can that be. kaiser. talk to me now actually i saw this three is hysterical human who were

developed in japan provides a way to attend events remotely using another person's body a surprisingly natural says this inventor gen reckon moto of so many now i don't know quite if it's a joke but the photos are funny and you know it is something like that was done on south park once so usually means sometime anything marked on south part as a ridiculous thing that kenny and cartman would do well that usually becomes the future so that was the simpsons they predicted all kinds of things family guy oh yeah well i guess you know the way this would work as for example those glasses made by author of snap i mean you can have a video enable glasses you can go to the event wearing glasses with video cameras and then you can tap into somebody at the event and see the event as they're seeing it through their glasses or there's no contact lenses that are video cameras that you just click on with a blink of your of your eyes i mean you could rent into somebody's body into their

presence watch them experience something in real time through that link well the image shown in this and i don't know if it's part of a fake story a fake news and funny stuff on twitter but it's just an i pad strapped to somebody's face and you max keiser would be face time and pete and somebody else is walking around as you want to buy one of those you know i pods honor i pads on a stick and we'll see you have a roll around so you can just park. no didn't have appeared at events like that it's not a transplant right i mean you're not transplanting my head on to something another person and then sending that to see the hockey game i saw that i thought it could be applied to this first headline i have here dutch police to undress use wearing clothes deemed too expensive for them officers will target young men wearing designer clothes and watches they seemingly cannot afford police in the dutch city of rotterdam have launched a new pilot program which will see them confiscating expensive clothing and jewelry from young people if they look too poor to whom them well that's

a discrimination against crypto miners and crypto traders because you know there's a whole generation of teenagers and young adults to who are crypto millionaires and of course are out buying expensive watches and limburg a nice to reflect their incredible wealth there's a story a market watch dot com people showing the results are there for a one k. plans they are millionaires or for a one k. plans are riding the bull market wealth has become you know i was i was a kid we had a show called lifestyles of the rich and famous with robin leach the talked about all these celebrities and all the gold and gold and lifestyles they lead now strictly down to the twenty first century you see all these teenagers now multimillionaire perpetrators and you know but this comes in a an environment and the netherlands was part of the u.k. a french german u.s. you know. fraudster banks are sort of people that destroyed the global economy and no banker jamie diamond and lloyd blankfein are still walking around they are rich enough to afford their rolex and expensive suits but only because they gotten gains

so here they're saying if you look too poor like what is what how do you how do you look poor like what if somebody has a bad diet they too many tight pods and they just look poorly like you don't look like you should be able to afford that eight hundred euro jacket they said like too many people have too many of these young guys who have no visible means of support well they're wearing expensive clothing and we're just going to take it we're going to embarrass them by underestimating the. and the middle of the street and taking their clothes isn't this just asset forfeiture well it made me think of the united states i thought like where this leads to is this next headline in the united states americans cut savings to a twelve year low the drop matters since consumers make up roughly seventy percent of the u.s. economy while american consumption continues to power their economy there's a cautionary signal the savings rate is falling in december the rate fell to two point four percent the lowest since september two thousand and five from two point

five percent the prior month according to commerce department figures the drop matters because consumers make up roughly seventy percent of the economy and they can only push savings down so far before it impacts their ability to keep spending which in turn fuels u.s. growth of course there's a lot of civil asset forfeiture here in the united states and cops will shake down all sorts of young people so it makes sense to not have any savings or not have any assets because why would you because this is going to be taken so you might as well spend it consume as much of a tide pods as possible yes several s. a for churn extends beyond just minorities it's just all young people now are having their assets stolen but you know this is what i call the frying pan economy so you just consume your way up until market tops and then when the markets stop at a crash it's like hitting your head with a frying pan so you just ring the bell of your skull in your craniums ring one of them and you wait for the bailout to cap it always does from the central bank and then you go back and showing again so it's a it's just a unconscious economy there's nobody ever tries to switch from having a high savings rate to switch to having

a high paying job just consumer debt consumer debt frying pan bam consumer debt consumer to frying pan bam that's the a cycle of the economy right now until such time as the polarized caps melt and we have nothing but rising sea levels that are one drowns i saw somebody say philip k. dick if you're reading this tweet just kill all of us now we don't want to be in this like it's a filled k. dick dystopia nightmare we're living it in fees writing it somewhere in a parallel universe please stop. up and let's don't lie because this whole boom bust boom bust thing you're talking about it reminds me of like that side five series west world where all the characters on a loop but they feel very deeply in passionately and they feel love and they feel stress and they feelings i need for their loved ones and blah blah blah but they wake up every single day and their loved ones are slaughtered and killed and everything taken by these tourists it's like groundhog's day written by philip k. dick they're honest additions loop where there's wake up every single day instead of some charming rogue in the lobby of a hotel trying to pick up

a doll it's really just robust trying to kill each other for a few extra pints at the pub well that's what it seems like with these stories of the civil asset forfeiture you know every day you think you wake up you go work you go set up your bitcoin mining rig or your marrow or earlier easy cash and you think you're working in adding to your value net worth and some cop shakes you down and takes all your stuff and says go back to work and start over again the next day and then they run you lou loop around the loop it goes the circus never ends the sideshows are now the main show on the mainstays with the pets of mine continuing indefinitely until you hit the savings consumer whole of the savings consumer end of the pothole that is. well here's another headline that was out last week but i saved it for this one because in your second half you speak to the twenty year old j.p. beric just twenty years old he's already

a big name in the crypto space into crypto mining not just in mining but marrow easy cash in others samsung south korea's largest firm is manufacturing a stick chips for bitcoin mining samsung the largest company in south korea which is accountable for a large portion of the country's economy has started the production phase of bitcoin and cryptocurrency mining equipment and a second mining chips the biggest company in south korea a large portion of south korea's economy and people think these stories about south korea possibly shutting down because you know that seems crazy because wherever samsung goes the economy of south korea goes there's an old saying about oh yeah well you know i got to give credit to my old pal rick fourteen year old who made the comparison with bitcoin and because of mining to the oil industry and i think

a lot of people don't understand the fundamental shift of the global economy due to crypto mining is significant as that which we discovered during the oil boom in the discovery of oil to change the whole global economy the combustion engine and all the huge wealth and influence that came with the oil barons and now we're in the age of the crypto barons and it's not just fluffy pony there are other crypto barons as well exactly well they're getting in on the game and i'll go into some of the details about how significant this is because right now by the way the real the only two. chip companies that control a large part of the market are a bit maine and then taiwan's t.s.m. c. so they control a lot of the chip market in terms of the fastest mining and most efficient mining capacity but here there is. samsung is getting in and they're like top of the game nobody can compete with them on many different. aspects of a production of semiconductor for example for apple but local media outlets

reported that samsung partnered with a chinese bitcoin mining equipment manufacturer last year and finished the development of its chips samsung which operates one of the largest semiconductor as i said manufacturing plants in the world will manufacture and supply cryptocurrency mining equipment to the chinese market first which of course is funny because you know it was just announced that china is banning. mining of bitcoin in china south korea saying we're going to provide some line equipment these chips for china. some people say that again that's just fake news as well that were or were misreading the statements coming out of china that china just has there's a problem with the local corrupt officials who are doing deals with between miners getting the taxpayer to finance the electricity for the mining operations and taking all the money themselves so again we don't know really what's going on in

that part of the world right now.
