killed nine churchgoers in south carolina. well it turns out he was able to purchase his weapons because of errors in the f.b.i.'s background check process and then there is no adel hassan he shot up a u.s. military post in texas back in two thousand and nine. the f.b.i. was fully aware that he was online in communication with top al qaeda leaders they still didn't bother to investigate i think we've seen time and time again over the last he is our intelligence agencies across the west dropping the pool in terms of getting tips being aware of potential threats and not following up on those threats and due to taking advantage of measures it seems lessens not being learned they need to have a proper view about you know what exactly are the threats what are they trying to

do how can they best protect the people effect on tree to protect against these threats and that doesn't seem to be done it's not like these federal law enforcement agencies are lazy just recently we heard from the f.b.i. that chinese foreign exchange students are a threat to national security we also have federal agencies urging us not to buy chinese brand cellphones and more recently congress renewed the power of the n.s.a. to wiretap and spy on american citizens some might come to the conclusion that it's not incompetence or a lack of effort the issue is rather the type of threat these agencies are choosing to focus on caleb oppen r.t. new york. a palestinian schoolteacher has been that's gone off to being moved by an israeli army dog would have morning and you may find some of the following scenes upsetting my book was assaulted during a west bank raid by israeli defense forces they would searching for another man the alleged can of a. and this really man who bears the same name surname as general here we can start

to show you the extent of the increases danger in the morning the schoolteacher is expected to require further treatment including a skin graft to one of his arms he's also been left with a leg injury. so. i woke up when i heard explosions i looked at my house door and it had been destroyed by an i.d.f. bomb and after that there were several other explosions that destroyed the windows and damaged the house i went immediately to my children's room and we gathered after that there was another explosion that destroyed the bedroom door i saw a dog it started to attack me and bite my shoulder and then it started to bite my leg and i was screaming. palestinian school teacher was allegedly attacked in front of his children and his wife in a us. since this incident has had a psychological effect on my husband my children and myself i am staring at this

hospital with them and i see him waking up at night shaking and trembling and the eldest son also wakes up screaming about his that and the little one is waiting the bad it was a terrifying experience the dog attacked my husband for over seven minutes and i try to help and defend my husband by grabbing the dogs had what i could and get away from him we asked the idea for a comment on the case and it responded by saying general had previously threatened civilians in jewish majority areas of the west bank they also told us the raid was conducted in accordance with standard procedures and that jar was immediately given medical treatment however he disputes that saying he had to wait for any treatment . afterward i was bleeding for more than two and a half hours and they took me to the hospital note that i only got treatment at the hospital itself not from the i.d.f. author and journalist. says the use of dogs is standard i.d.f.

policy. this you know is being cast by the israeli military and government as kind of an isolated incident but as any of us who follow the situation in the west bank know this is far from isolated it's part of the clear policy of using dogs as kind of an advance team during home raids of palestinians there is also a high profile case in twenty fifteen of a sixteen year old from the southern town of beit omar also a town that's under pressure from from jewish settlers where he his home was raided by an israeli dog unit this is a sixteen year old named him he was badly mauled by a dog you know these dogs apply two thousand pounds of pressure per square inch and israeli soldiers were taunting him on video there's actually video of this incident and now he. and the palestinian human rights group are suing not israel but

actually the dutch company for winds canine which supplied those dogs and has supplied what it calls biting dogs to the israeli military for violating u.n. conventions on companies operating in conflict zones so this is a very significant lawsuit and it speaks to a wider policy of what the israeli dissident journalist gideon levy calls lynching by dog. the ice hockey team from russia has won for one nail against the u.s. and progress to the quarterfinals of the winter olympics auntie's in a pitch in china enjoy the build up to the match with the fun. tonight's the night of the biggest event so far of the young tang twenty eight seeing it if you don't know what that is just yet in a second it will be written all over my face. and

. seem usa versus. t.-mo we are. well donald trump and lot of approach and watch this game yeah i think so what do you think donald trump will do if he sees a gold being scored by the o.a.r. team read about it. because you know. we're in this girl see why you know what she's talking now guys will you hate russia tonight i look for sure i'm actually looking for i'm not she coming making my first ever visit to russia for the world cup this summer wow that is great even though the u.s. are not taking the not taking apart i want to russia the game is sold out and even

though it's just a group stage match the talents online outside the stadium are reselling tickets at exorbitant prices do you think john supporting one of the sides in this one. if i had to take a guess what is the u.s. russia i believe russia do you think donald trump and a lot of opponent will be watching. i really hope so got out like what else are they doing to come on what has been this is so much fun you write you say. you know you have a trego r.c. right outside the ice hockey arena and young chang right before the number one game of the week and saying that the hockey this saturday the women's team from russia beat the swiss rivals and for the first time in history and to the semifinals of the winter olympics despite the fact that. players didn't receive an invitation to the competition from the i.o.c.

actually the russian players had to have a come a wave of criticism back home especially after they lost to the u.s. . however they put the defeat behind them and have set their sights on a podium finish. it will take decades to clear the iraqi city of unexploded bombs according to a new u.n. report that story on the wall after this break. so late of all this is and is a way to practice is the old brush oppressive measures being deployed against the palestinian people everywhere on the set of colonialism the theft of all of the land and the many many. you know there's a stating things that they're going to his own doing of course the gun calls and call uprising.

what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or something i want to press . you to go on to be for us this is what before three in the morning can't be good . i'm interested always in the waters about how. this should. welcome back to the part about a u.n. report says unexploded bombs are litter the iraqi city of mosul for decades to come and could endanger civilians the complexity of clearance works are because many of the explosives are buried and don't estimate eleven million tons of rubble the u.n.

mine action service a senior program manager compares the situation in the city to that after world war two i am. become so explosive a house it is very and it is of unseen previously unseen proportions in terms of the contamination that we experience it is a mixture of coalition nomination that has been fired and that has failed to function we are still made at least ten percent of that i mention. that has five been fired has failed to function we also find that ice is a mission that has been fired has failed to function but with higher failure rates in addition to that we also find improvised explosive devices different types of explosive improvised explosive devices with different fusing systems all in common a combination with rubble high degree of rubble we estimate eleven million ton of

rubble in western model at least and in general a very difficult conditions to work under. it is a situation very similar to after the second world war of course what we are doing right now is that we are clearing we're serving and we are clearing critical infrastructure but still after ten maybe twenty years maybe even longer there will still be explosive contamination. it is almost impossible to say we haven't got the school of contamination in mosul yet we haven't been to all locations but it is a question of years and i'm telling everything else being cleared it is probably more than ten years the vast sums needed to restore and rebuild the country is estimated at eighty eight billion dollars according to the iraqi government but as a global aid pledging conference and coate only thirty billion was raised the u.s.

led coalition started its anti i thought campaign in twenty sixteen but it's been embedded in the country since two thousand and three washington's place just three of the eighty eight billion dollars to be needed in reconstruction and in this was not direct financial help rather the money was loans and financing to help american firms invest in the country. what torkel ramon's rebuild iraq and modernize its economy the signal is strong. and iraq went through a five. three billion dollar memorable metallica and also the announcement by the us government representative in the kuwait conference was clear they will not provide anything except perhaps some investment in iraq we believe that the iraqi government with all its political factions should have joined forces and demanded to pay the money. the us military plans to radically

boost its stockpile of artillery shells by eight hundred percent that's an increase of almost one hundred fifty thousand units. the order includes one hundred fifty five millimeter artillery shells the use of which are widespread among nato its naval forces and g.p.s. guided excalibur rounds are also on the list they're designed for danger close situations we all security analyst charles schumer it's what's likely to be behind the move. almost certainly one can say that these are used these are heavy weaponry they are used mainly in conventional conflicts what we're seeing here is a very large increase that i think can't be completely explained by replenishing

used resources the what's being attempted i think it's a gesture it's a symbol that is saying we are massively increasing our defense expenditure in the areas that are likely to be used in a possible combat scenario with states rather non-state actors and invariably of course they're talking here about russia possibly china iran and others and that would be indeed consistent with the new stated u.s. security policy of confronting those states by any standard this isn't it a very great increase in the number of shells being ordered a powerful stockpiling which again means that the army is affects from preparing for war. now crossing a frozen siberian lake on a pair of seventy year old skates might not be everybody's idea of a daily commute but it is the one russian grandmother.

and that's the roundup of our top stories from back at the top of the out with will also do stay with us.

i think i. used a solution in the spokesmen. just using this thing in the book which is this is. a. little bit so it was just almost a trial of. saddam for us for us to get. to some odd time he has.

joined me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest in the world of politics school business i'm show business i'll see you then. just. certain i want to do is just show a new face do we really be very clear let's go away go to. management. and they are they they when they up and they have.

skimmed you need to feel the. sun yeah i'm them what do you how much. do you. mean that with a measure more negative passion. 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. i'm going to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru and we're just a little bit different i'm not a abraham lincoln or no no no one knows up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the road to have fun meet everyday americans. and hopefully

start to bridge the gap this is the great american people. my stars are this is the ca's report of smell teen spirit i fear a good show is killing information will be imparted you'll be relieved of your ignorance you'll be lightened by our insights it's all happening right now thank goodness stacey is here stacey max actually since this team spirit i'm going to read you if you have to tell me which one you want to know more about ok first one

it sounds like. the first one is from zero has j.p. morgan publishes the big clean bible the second one is us arizona senate passes a bill to allow tax payments and bitcoin or goldman sachs raises gold price forecasts and one more what crossed stocks and that's from wall street dot com yes well they j.p. morgan issuing their big claim but of all the you say the insiders of the organizations are in revolt jamie dimon their leader has been discredited jamie dimon their leader has been a known scamps or a penny pincher a regulatory nightmare somebody who has nickel and dimed america to near death and cumulated a billion dollars of pennies and like some bad superman movie or that other film office space now it all dovetails nicely into the states rights of arizona saying you know what we want the business we want the tax revenue crypto is the marijuana of money you can't smoke it but you can get high off it and they're thinking you

know what we love it we've already got now bought a next door they're making big bank in the casino business in the bunny ranch with all the fluffy looking people girls and what not and guys i suppose a minute think an alarm of revenue to say in crypto is the way forward crypto is the answer the little digits in the little code or something that will give us the kind of relief we need to pay for roads and infrastructure and maybe we can open our own little bus brothel and whatnot you never know once you go down this path it's anything's possible. for example those in my opening comments that would be my gambit at this time myself oh my word salad but don't toss it so let's go over a few little bits some of the nuggets from their first paragraph i'll read to you they do admit here that some of the early buyers of c.c. i cryptocurrency were clearly dismayed by ballooning balance sheets of the major

central banks in the aftermath of the global financial crisis but the lack of any meaningful inflation since and both developed markets and emerging markets has surely reduced concerns about legal tender issued by a central bank money so they finally read a white paper they probably read the white paper total most ten years and they say oh the ballooning debts that's what you know cause somebody with a concern is to do battle with the terrorists in the central banks and they say that we printed lots of money but there was no inflation. failing to recognize that there was no wage inflation for people there was asset inflation for your punk enablers asset stripping mongers and terrorists but wages didn't go up because using financial engineering. to wages

no muss they good dead didn't go up. by no nice black folks in america know to get nice and you know they're in the wrong germander quarter wasn't for them. so i'll smoke and mirrors and i hope you know i'd like to see the faces of these bankers when they realize that the game is over and they're about to be run over by a steamroller you know they're like didn't work then that's right drop dead quick or make our lives easier in fact this next paragraph i'm going to read suggests he sees the steamroller coming because he's basically an. paragraph pleading j.p. morgan is pleading with the central banks not to let them die because they say fractional reserve banking was a tremendous innovation that surely contributed greatly to global growth over the last two centuries and we would expect the central banks would think twice before disturbing the source of capital to the private sector that's a heinous lie i mean

a so ridiculously over the top absurd to say the fractional reserve banking is contributed mightily to the group of the growth of the economy it has grown mightily to the growth of debt and made us put the globe into this debt straitjacket hundreds of percentage of debt to g.d.p. around the world it's essentially like saying to pablo escobar that putting baby powder and just cocaine which is like fractional reserve banking banking contributed enormously to his cocaine empire that's true but if you want to run the world like a cocaine empire like the jamie diamonds and the lloyd blankfein and then the new central bank president then it's not healthy for the global economy third denial they know that fractional reserve banking is a part of the whole to problem is to parasitical problem is the whole destruction of the economy yes lended to well no pun intended to growth and debt

but also a growth and fraud and a growth in injustice i would say as he had mentioned at the top it was the global financial crisis not in particular the global financial crisis like he kind of skims over what the white paper actually says but it was the the fraud of the global financial crisis that was in the big white paper the bailing out of the losers of the parasites that the central banks and able so that that is only possible had we been on a gold standard or any other standard by which central banks would have actually it would have cost them. bail out their buddies and their cronies who are parasites then you wouldn't see who said this this is j.p. . morgan saying this so there's fractures or banking is not destructive and that that had nothing to do with the global financial crisis ok the jimmy dime is essentially the harvey weinstein of the global finance market and the harvey weinstein still thinks he's going to come back harvey weinstein is still in denial

about the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of cases of of impropriety her behavior slashed rape hardly want to walk into a room ejaculate into a plant and think that was acceptable jamie done in a walks into a economy and a jockey lays a monetary money ejaculated money he says on this phone line that's grade was that income gap are skyrocketing because the global ecosystem is collapsing we have made billionaires one of the worst caca stock r.c.m. low level. in the world but that's fine because i'm jamie harvey weinstein diamond and this guy should be locked up and flaw that mean i have to put it in those terms but if saudi arabia can do it why can't wait and i mean this guy no grass was just to saudi arabia saying they're on the road to a better tomorrow well let's borrow some of their policies mike let's take jamie down as a you know the center of town and do the chop shop just get rid of our mice and berman however in the so called bitcoin bible here is a positive thing they do finally admit about bitcoin we examine the potential role

of cryptocurrency as in terms of offering diversification in a global portfolio given their high returns over the past several years and their low correlation with the major asset classes offsetting some of the cost of high volatility if past returns volatilities and correlations persist cryptocurrency is competent they have a role in diversifying one's global bond an equity portfolio but in our view that is a big if given the astronomic returns of volatilities over the past three years so kind of like you they do suggest. once. liquidity improves and once the price settles on a higher level it won't be so volatile and you won't see these thousand acts returns well here are the other make they're talking banker to banker and fiduciary to fiduciary in other words are saying that bitcoin has eaten our lunch the returns on bitcoin of make everything we do is a bank look stupid a mature and low performance even warren buffett has not kept up with bitcoin

nobody's kept up with that call and so they're saying that oh it's a non correlating asset ok what does that mean that may as stocks bonds and currencies are all in bear markets now in are going to continue to be in bear markets and they're probably going to wipe out a whole generation or two crypto currencies are the only thing is going to save these people and us from being fired so we're going to middle of the group the currency market because even if we get a little bit of those gains you've had the last ten years of bitcoin it'll save us from having to report big red negative year on year returns on every single piece of money management business we touch so they're like oh yeah we want to save our job well you know too late the millennial is are going over to the cash app saying to jack over jack dorsey thanks jack they're going over to coin base they're going. square that is the square cash app the square to add up i got a lot of big big quake in wales addicted to phone. me song the most

trusted name in crypto this. what are you going. les we don't want to tie into anything but let's one goes the nation yes he does like you say his name and but you know doesn't it in modern art you aren't in is now kind of modern art you've got to get into it j.p. morgan had deny deny deny deny the power and existence of a big way now they're they've capitulated and they're accepting it now they're right in between bibles the other argument by no corners as they're called. until you pay taxes in your with bitcoin then it's not a real currency and arizona senate passes a bill to allow tax payments in big coin there isn't a senate passed a bill on february eighth to allow residents in the state to pay their taxes with crypto currencies public records indicate the senate bill one zero nine one which intends to enable cryptocurrency s. not just big calling for tax payment was introduced january tenth twenty eighteen

passed by the senate finance committee by a four to three vote january twenty fourth on february eighth the senate passed a bill by sixteen to thirteen margin with one novell to jail records just got to be found like a m e ted right is still has to pass the arizona p.r. shift they're like man we were so wrong about this big going thing we could have been more wrong so also before i forget we said we mention that guy michael and josh. for saying to anything but we promised we'd mention them a hi michael and job ever best for a great evening by the way those fun. by those guys are great over there you know sort of super they have a lot of inside dope on who is really should toshi it but nobody in the global audience watching this knows what we're talking about there but regarding your this be any different but we guarding this ok so i saw suppress the arizona house of representatives and what in particular the guy who sponsored this bill arizona state republican representative jeff when and or.
