a killer in america mistakes i think that's for sure and with this relationship between russia and china to become. quite a lot can be quite tricky and would be very difficult to undermine. ever since the smog swamps manufacturing centers of the industrial aid society has come to the realization that living and breathing are smokestacks clouds of noxious fumes and wearing fergus's may not be the healthiest lifestyle choice the sentiments were then formalized in the sixty's and seventy's with congress and acting the clean air act and founding the e.p.a. and outside of a small minority of libertarian minded billionaires this understanding of human health is largely universal society but in the case of bizarre oversight one rather sizable group of americans appear to fall outside the protections of my. health and
3:04 am
science that's the nation's youngest and bravest in uniform who returned from afghanistan and iraq not only with all the ordinary scars of war with a panopoulos of diseases and conditions set on by serving near burn pits the inexplicable waste disposal preference of the u.s. military in today's conflict zones to discuss how this practice is allowed to carry on today and what can be done about it we were joined earlier by a documentary in great love and air national guard medically retired senior master sergeant jesse bock. for folks at home who aren't quite aware what what are some of the symptoms and maladies that have been what we've seen from this over the years me personally i have irreversible lung damage it's considered a terminal illness up until a few years ago i would have never even heard the name they call it constrict a broken leg it's an english it's small there was disease there's people in their twenty's thirty's and forty's and they have the physical capabilities of a person in their eighty's in bad health and it's and it's hitting people's left and right i'm good dear good friend of mine he got colon cancer at forty one years
3:05 am
old it's was unheard of a person of that age doesn't get that. i myself i had skin cancer totally unrelated they said it's hereditary and all this. nobody in my family has that i know the blue it just came out of nowhere and the things that they're burning in their spirits you know what can we describe what was true and it's not just you know cardboard and certain kinds of ways this is everything if it can be burned it was in there if it can be burned through a jet fuel on it contaminated jet fuel and light it up and it will burn anywhere from a vehicle to body parts and everything in between and then it's not even so i just want to say the other thing is that also in these contracts the contracts that were required to follow e.p.a. regulations they were supposed to treat. these but i don't see these burn pits but there was a treat these bases as if they were pieces of america so they were required to
3:06 am
follow e.p.a. regulations which means they were not allowed to burn plastics and paints and chemicals and solvents and i because that's really going to get your legal they're going to hit a yard that's legal for thirty some odd years i mean i've stayed and that is just you said they poured g.p.a. down and g.p.a. itself is a percentage and so regardless of what they're burning there it's already a cancer causing. well i was very little pleased with the credibility well what i was hearing actually is you know i've heard reports and things like that and i can't i don't know if you guys know for sure anything like that but i heard the one of the i've heard rumblings. you know around the internet and things like that the even was a joe biden son could have actually been suffering from you know he served you know which is one of the five bases where a lot of the the most of the injuries were diseases were coming from and he died of brain cancer that a lot of his colleagues and fellow soldiers and a lot of these other people are suffering from so it's circumstantial evidence. but
3:07 am
it's literally the exact same i mean i've looked into it's the exact same kind of brain cancer that we have seen in people that we are talking about their own pets or talk to other people and that's. it's anecdotal and right but when you have a ton of people only not coincidentally not that but for veterans watching who you know served in that war spent time you know in afghanistan and iraq during that period you know what should they do if they're worried about this what should they do if they're worried about their health you know who should because who should they reach out to from one veteran to another they need to get a hold of a veteran service officer in their community in their state and. bring your paperwork even if it's one sheet of paper and start the process secondly they need to get on the registry because we need a loud voice the more people we get on that have the louder the voice becomes will be heard but is there something they should look for in their morality is it was
3:08 am
there something or was it can do sounds like it's going to smorgasbord of different things but i mean is there something of like you know i i have this maybe it's because of this let's put it this would be for you deploy you have to be in absolutely perfect health you're basically at the level of an athlete anything less than that you know your body's sick. time to start investigating and it doesn't have to be a doctor it can be your outside doctor your family doctor somebody trusted for many years all of that is evidence and take it out there and have and a lot of it's chemistry to some people just don't get along with each other find somebody that will help you that you can communicate with and get the ball rolling now it's worth or it's most right i actually spoke to one of the doctors that it's not a documentary but he actually told me that he thinks there's far more soldiers that are sick that actually come forward because if they are you know they don't necessarily put one and one together and link it to the burn pit so they have throat issues or muscle pain or they are or you know cancers but they don't
3:09 am
necessarily know that it's related so basically any veteran who has any illness whatsoever should get it checked out because it very well could have come from burn pits if they served in those areas where can people see the movie. that. best way is to just go to our website which is burn pits documentary dot com they can not only get information about the website but about burn pits in general and we have a link there and they can they can attend a screening they can download the documentary now that's that's where most of my vision is available so burn pits documentary dot com and definitely sure there's other spill them and get out there and see it and keep talking about it because that's one of the things that could really you know keep this ball rolling like you're sad and keep and take care of you know our brothers and sisters who are suffering from these illnesses that are really due to the greed in the in the avarice of war how can how can the folks at home you know also help ok regular just everyday people watching at home what can they do to help us well they can download
3:10 am
the documentary they can share it with their friends that would help at the war but they can also write to their congressmen or write to their senators they could talk to local media if they know of a veteran they can try to get you know help help that person i mean it's they do have to get out of their chair and help but the bottom line is that i mean one of things it's still great about america is that average people can make a difference and politicians do listen to the people who vote for them so you can it's got to get up and you just got to talk to the media watch a documentary share the documentary right you congressmen you kind of your representatives just help spread the word and keep the think alan you know that we will do that here and thank you so much both of you for coming and sitting down with us today yes i love it the director of delay deny hope you die how america poisoned its soldiers and senior master sergeant jesse to mexico or national guard thank you very much for your service and thank you very much for making this documentary and keep up the good good work of very very welcome thank you for

having. our lawmakers may very well look the other way when it comes to american soldiers forced by their commanders doing just clouds of deadly toxins but they're apathy to public. tema nation certainly ends when the crime is politically expedient and the mainstream media is hand-picked suspect isn't pentagon or contractor brass but rather typecast villain vladimir putin and that is precisely the case with the tragic entirely unsolved poisoning of expiry scruple and his daughter who are in critical condition in a u.k. hospital after what london washington and western mainstream media and system as some kind of revenge poisoning by scrip all those former employers in moscow and setting a record even sherlock holmes never dreamed of the complex investigation of this one would think mysterious crime as apparently started and already run its course and conclusively ended in a hole of just eleven days for more on how the script all incident is being
3:12 am
politicized by all the usual suspects here is r t s on your part. in his first remarks on these great ball poisoning putin described the u.k.'s handling of the case as destructive and provocative saying he's extremely concerned about the situation this comes as president trump has released a rare joint statement along with his british french and german counterparts concerning the attack on the former double agent the strongly worded letter called the incident an assault on the united kingdom sovereignty as well as a clear violation of the chemical weapons convention and a breach of international law however other language in the joint statement was less certain it reads quote the united kingdom thoroughly briefed its allies that it was highly likely that russia was responsible for the attack the statement comes one day after the u.n. security council held an emergency meeting on the issue of screwballs poisoning u.s. ambassador nikki haley went so far as to suggest that russia would attack new york
3:13 am
in the future russia's ambassador for his part insists that his country is innocent if we don't take immediate concrete measures to address this now solsbury will not be the last place we see chemical weapons used. they could be used here in new york or in cities or of any country that sits on this council this is a defining moment and i see russia has nothing to do with this incident the ultimatum from london is something that we consider to be something that we cannot pay attention to it is no one void we are compelled to make the following conclusion that authorities of the u.k. are not interested in finding the truth and alas they are guided by something else they are using the propaganda war ways of years and they are trying to influence the public which is very easy to influence and not well educated. meanwhile russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said wednesday russia is prepared to fulfill its obligations under international law relating to the organization for the
3:14 am
prohibition of chemical weapons but that no formal request has been made by the u.k. take a listen to what he added while speaking this afternoon. you can listen to i cannot judge what kind of motives our british colleagues cannot but think that those motives were not on it because they were honest they would tell us and then sir all those questions we are asking and would launch those procedures which are under the convention of preventing chemical weapons and now this morning u.k. defense minister gavin williamson had this to say in response to russia's position is absolutely atrocious treacherous and outrageous will do it in soldiery we have responded to it frankly russia should go away should churchill up with no concrete evidence presented in the case against russia as of yet it seems the best u.k. could come up with today was an insult with a touch of undiplomatic behavior in washington on your part until r.t. . u.s.

they're broadcasting live there from our studios in moscow this is r t international i'm sean thomas certainly glad to have you with us. now we start with news from syria's rebel held territory of eastern gooda the russian defense ministries a center for reconciliation says eleven thousand civilians have been able to leave the embattled area in the last a day using a humanitarian corridor set up by the syrian government that and at least two thousand more are expected to leave in the coming hours evacuation forms part of an initiative to get civilians in the region out of harm's way until recently many people had not been able to escape as the militants there have reportedly been
3:22 am
shelling a humanitarian corridor established by russia or to every question that was shot through a neighbor ports now the exodus. from . america might not have been in the absence of civilians are living good or right now by the humanitarian corridor you can see behind me and the passage has been recently opened by syrian forces perhaps it's allowing crowds of civilians that many of them are children to leave in battle area people are coming from different districts and many civilians were telling about the suffering they face from militants they also said they were previously prevented from cleaner we left eastern ghouta he was so difficult when we tried to leave earlier we were not allowed as it was controlled by terrorists. the army advanced on the town and asked us to leave thank god we are safe and sound and we have arrived here. good which is

close to the capital damascus came under rebel control back in two thousand and twelve cents and government forces have been trying to recapture the area and fighting intensified there last month the militants have been driven into three pockets with the syrian government now holding. large parts of the territory but the situation for civilians trapped in the embattled areas remains a dire people have been caught in the crossfire and are suffering shortages of food and supplies. the u.k.'s defense secretary has told russia to quote shut up and go away over moscow's alleged poisoning of former spy service we paul and his daughter as the diplomatic fallout over the incident continues it is absolutely atrocious treacherous and outrageous what russia to it and sold three we have responded to thought frankly russia should go away should sure to look we've certainly raised eyebrows because it begins to feel
3:24 am
a little bit surreal when this kind of language starts being used in this kind of language comes into play especially if you're expecting to be taken seriously certainly in the world of diplomacy in the u.k. has plans to provide a sample of the nerve agent that has been discussed and rubble in in connection to this poisoning to the organization for the prague bishan of chemical weapons which russia is also a part of but it's not providing a sample to russia despite requests messages multiple times from russia throughout this past week to be able to analyze this nerve agent and try to assess what exactly it is and we do know of course the foreign ministry in russia has been saying they would like to know what the substance is we've heard from foreign minister sergei lavrov said russia that russia will definitely retaliate in connection to the expulsion of the twenty three russian diplomats certainly a quid pro quo scenario is that sort of traditional in these kinds of scenarios
3:25 am
what he did underscore that russia will continue to use diplomatic language. well germany france america and the u.k. have now issued a joint statement on the poisoning which they say was highly likely to have been orchestrated by the kremlin that requests that moscow provide the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons with information about the no which are conservative program now it follows the british government's decision on wednesday to take retaliatory measures against russia and in an address it to parliament prime minister theresa may announced that twenty three diplomats will be expelled from the u.k. she said high level bilateral meetings are also being suspended that includes a visit from russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov on top of that there will be no official delegation from the u.k. attending the upcoming football world cup this summer we spoke to the russian ambassador to the u.k. alexander. about the incident and the backlash it has triggered he says he does not believe the case is being handled appropriately things were gleaned. under the
3:26 am
bridge of course vacation agent a two three four. is the russian region we asked the british officially by newt to share the samples of that in order to make our own conclusions and we would not and so all the investigation about the screwball is classified we don't have any information we don't have any access nobody saw even the pictures of the people in the hospital whether they alive or maybe the just in the good health. so nobody talked to the doctor you know there is absolutely no transparency in this case and this is worries us but by the way under the international law in the vienna convention we have to give the access to these people because they're russian citizens and we're also being denied so basically britain doesn't respect the international law and the way how they're behaving. is just. puts
3:27 am
a lot of questions. investigation into the attack on the former russian intelligence agent and his daughter is still ongoing and there are still many unanswered questions started daniel harkins explained and attack by the kremlin on the u.k. soil for downing street it seems the case is all but closed russia is the culprit no questions or other. as the prime minister taking the necessary steps to make a formal request for evidence from the russian government given the gravity of the accusations at official request seemed like a reason the mosque but lost crew though says no such requests were forthcoming. we haven't received any official request from london we've told britain we're ready to respond if they file the request instead of filing the official request the u.k. continues to pull political stunts and moscow also said it would cooperate in a joint investigation within o.p.c. w.
3:28 am
parameters it seems this offer was unacceptable to the u.k. government. has high resolution trace analysis been run on a sample of the nerve agent no answers from to reason may on that but the prime minister believes there's already enough evidence to make it highly likely this was an attack order by the russian state guilty as charged mr script atlantis daughter poisoned with an. a military grade nerve agent developed by russia means motive and opportunity are usually needed to prove criminal guilt the nerve agent shark legibly used in that attack was actually developed in the soviet union decades ago and the o.p.c. w. officially confirmed that russia had concluded the destruction of its entire chemical weapons stockpile last year but apparently it was not only russia that had access to research labs and the scientists working there and he spoke to stan for
3:29 am
example which became independent after the. breakup of the soviet union it was the pentagon that helped to demilitarize the facility it was in that very facility that nugget shock was tested to do most of the gerbils up at least in the mid one nine hundred ninety s. western special services recruited a number of our chemical specialists their names are known they also brought some of the documents and continued research in this area including in the us in the u.k. the results achieved by those countries in creating new poisonous substances that for some reason classified under the common name in the west are confirmed and represented in more than two hundred open sources from nato countries we have all the references we're ready to provide them. how has she responded to the russian government's request for a sample of the agent used in the soles reattack to run its own tests apparently no response and no sample why the secrecy if this is such an open and shut case.
3:30 am
has that revealed any evidence as to the location of its production all the identity of its perpetrators hundreds of offices as you would expect continue to work around for gathering evidence to identify those responsible were not declaring a person of interest or a suspect at this. how does committing a heinous act on foreign soil on the eve of a presidential election and months before the much discussed world cup knowing the diplomatic fallout benefit the kremlin you have to ask one thing if russia wanted to kill this man they could have killed him when he was a prisoner in russia why are they waited this long and why use a chemical weapon that makes it definitely is so russia is behind this very old to think that the president of russia is sitting in his office deciding who to kill
