people could be killed by an uncontrolled fire there and what's at stake at sellafield on the irish sea in the northwest of england silos big enough to hold six double decker buses filled to the brim with some of the most dangerous radioactive waste in the world and there's a lot of it there are twenty two silos like this in this entire building housing and to. move radioactivity released by the chernobyl disaster it took fifty years before the state mandated b.b.c. could reveal the truth about how successive british governments covered up the circumstances surrounding a fire at windscale as sellafield was called before its p.r. name change the fire in one hundred fifty seven could according to the b.b.c. have irrevocably altered the u.k. u.s. special relationship let alone killed a lot of people prime minister harold macmillan president eisenhower to sign an agreement that would change britain's relationship with america forever.

but just days before a fire had broken out at windscale the country's fast you can react. on. britain was on the brink of an unprecedented disaster but could drop as it continues today about sellafield as well as an ongoing terrorism threat this was in just the past few months army bomb disposal experts are being called to sellafield to detonate potentially flammable chemicals discovered in britain's largest nuclear sites well it's outside the mark the birth of britain's weapons of mass destruction program now located on the river clyde in scorned britain is of course extorting weapons all around the world some believe the brics it may lead to a spiraling of u.k. weapons dealing so we caught up with a member of britain's arms export control panel outside parliament story in people in letham is also on the u.k. international development select committee pauline thanks so much regularly on going underground after a long in the green outside parliament so we're. do you say to people who are

warning the british public that post bricks it is dealing is going to twenty eight percent two point nine billion pounds with their licenses agreed to june twenty sixth any connections you are having to do deals with with a repressive talk receivers because we need the deals because we're leaving europe no there's nothing to say we have to do a deal we give licenses to allow companies to export and they're very stringent they regulate it so there's no reason at all why this anything to do with say it will post. referendum or any folks in parliament is nothing to do with it is about people wanting to sell arms and then it's about the licenses that we agree but of course i mean you're repeating what theresa may says repeatedly in parliament when she was questioned about arms licensing to saudi arabia currently involved in one of the worst humanitarian crises in the family. well yes after all is

a strict regime if we're training pilots to be because what we do is we see what they are wanting and then we issue the license and we look very carefully about what they're going to be used for so although you say it's a very repressive regime it's just changing you know i mean rabia you don't think saudi arabia is a repressive regime it has been i think it's changing because they are now allowing women to draw if they are changing the role of women in society they want women to get elected into parliament it is moving forward to a democratic society which it never has been so it has been repressive agree but i think there are some issues forward people in public squares amputates people's lives but you cannot change a definite change. we will help change saudi arabia no i don't think that will make any difference to saudi arabians have to change sad. we can't change it we can't

interfere in the democratic changes which are coming as it wasn't only arms acts will commit. you don't think that we are enabling saudi violence in the middle east you know. i've only been to one meeting safe and that was to elect the chairman i haven't exactly got very safe certainly not on my phone because i only joined just before christmas when we had a vote to elect the chairman so we have yet. there was a meeting this week or last week which i was unable to attend but the next few meetings will be quite critical and we will be looking out our policies in the country as to what we're going to do so then we can look quite seriously about who is getting what and why but you've seen the pictures from you have i mean you had andrew mitchell former vice chair of the visit. we've had unicef on talking about tens of millions of people threatened. british bombs being dropped is

a british planes being warplanes dropping the bombs and these are british trained pilots ordering the bombs that are blowing up and killing or wounding thousands of civilians there are many i mean many thousands of people who've been killed it's completely wrong but you have to look at the morning to picture of which is going on out there and i didn't think. they were going to able to drop in which case what you're saying the logical conclusion of that is let's stop all arms trading and let's not have no weapons of any so anywhere in the world will know i'm talking about. the logical conclusion of that is we shouldn't be selling any arms to anybody and we shouldn't even be having arms ourselves conclusion of what you're saying but it seems that a huge proportion and the biggest deals with saudi arabia. well they may be the biggest deals they're not with. the united states in

a special relationship they are with or talkers well undemocratic countries of course the united states has its own arms manufacturers so we don't need to sell to them but where we have the traditional relationship we have been selling arms to all sorts of different countries and saudi arabia is one of them it's only worth around point two seven percent of our g.d.p. anyway selling killing machine stone democratic only georgia their populations but such is a large chunk really if we take that out completely there will be many many people unemployed they'll be an awful lot of people with no jokes they'll be claiming benefits can't justify the killing or want to know anything about the cause of the building and i'm not trying i'm not justifying that what i'm saying is that what we need to do is look very carefully before we allow any licenses now been involved with that after yet but we will be so you are going to be and then i will

scrutinize the decision making and i will make my views know if i feel that it's wrong i will say said but what if you are threatened by these countries because tony blair from asli said security cooperation was threatened saudi arabia was basically saying if you don't sell us these killing machines we won't warn you if you have got terrorist that's a very long time ago tony blair has not been there for many many years and regimes are changing and even saudi arabia is changing to become more democratic but it is bombing him it is bombing him in at the moment but we have to look at everything in the round and i haven't and nobody on the committee. because we've only just been reformed after the election last year it's taken a long time to do it so we will be looking very serious the decisions being made what about the fact that if a country can't afford the weapons were selling the taxpayers to subsidize some. up

to fifty percent loans to that country said that they can buy or what we do we give loans to all sorts of things and only international development we give loans and we give ground so i don't think that's the problem we should be subsidising much needed infrastructure or whatever in britain as it is subsidising foreign country we've got the biggest infrastructure in terms of roads and rail programme going on that's ever been so we're not doing that we are spending millions and millions mostly millions on a road infrastructure and it's continuing more than we've ever had before and rail infrastructure is going through the roof another crisis far from yemen is of course me and maher has been lots of even mainstream media coverage of the ring crisis how do you see the importance of it i think it's very important i think it's absolutely devastating to see so many people having to flee their country and particularly where the men are being slaughtered and the women are being raped on route and i

think that is well i. just don't understand why people can be so awful to people other people that have lived in their country for say when the generations and they're having to flee that country to go to bangladesh and live in fresh squalid conditions i mean that's inhuman and of course britain supported the me and mom military regime against sanctions before she was given this new. position yes she could. in my view she should respect me out against it if it means that she loses her job i think she should have done but i went to five five six years ago i met her and she was already. determined wranglers were not part of the area they were nothing to do with that they were not.

people they couldn't have the status of being they would be stateless and she had no problem with that and i said all along it's going to be a major problem she has got a mindset that will change and we're going again as a committee to me and then we're going to bangladesh as well to go and see the real situation and how britain is helping and helping a huge amount bangladesh could not cope with the number of refugees they have without britain's cisterns and they're very grateful for it given you have these twin roles that on the international development committee and the objects will committee what about the allegations that britain is involved in. co. production deals as it were with israel because israel is allegedly selling arms to her but. we don't know. that i hope will you're going to be looking into british involvement in the because britain famously supported the military junta before arguably

a big war and chinese orbit we did but i think that again most of these things we look at again freshly every time there's a new committee formed we will look at these things and come up with a conclusion because things change it's not always the same the whole of the time it's not the same now as it was two years ago so we have to look at things as they are now and reevaluate the situation. thank you coming up after the break. the father of this sixteen year old girl tells us why he thinks a camera saved his daughter's life at the hands of british backed israeli soldiers and the grandson of a signatory to israel's independence on why britain the united states continues to support israel which he accuses of colonialism oppression and the killing of innocent civilians always the more coming over part two of going on the.

twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest. but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star and a huge amount of pressure come out you have to be the center of the football we would you. agree the grid is good you are the rock at the back nobody gets to you we need you to get the ball going let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join for the two thousand and three of the world cup in russia meet the special one come on don't appreciate me just read the review. just a dish and make it up as we go. they

only apply the famed off her who is writing extensively on environmental issues and social justice issues went to these conferences in puerto rico and her takeaway was that a bunch of rich people of showed up and this is a danger to the local economy and to the local fabric of society so the first thing that strikes me is that lefties like they owe me feel they have a monopoly on good intentions which i'm not sure where that comes from. like when you have no clean water no health care no infrastructure those are all symptoms of a greater problem in haiti and that greater problem is imperialism that problem is dead dependency and domination that haiti has had to deal with since it became the first. free republic for whom by black people sixty four.

welcome back on the fifteenth of december u.k. back israeli forces allegedly shot fifteen year old mamma to me at point blank range in the head with a rubber bullet this video of his sixteen year old cousin had al-timimi film later that day is now viral on the internet. following a raid on her home by israeli forces ahead her mother and her cousin are all now in prison she could serve a seven year sentence after i.d.f. soldiers then confiscated the phone and computer of a father bassam the grandson of a signatory to israel's independence me capello said has brought a mobile phone for him to use when i joined by bus amount to me from ramallah in palestine by sam thanks for joining us tell me about what is happening with your

daughter and your wife. she. has. in mind i had this image of this sort of uniform. and. mine here but with the suit. and did not hold it. doesn't. believe. i was actually in. the foot six months. here. that i am here and she can go to i wished my i.d. me to three times she. didn't here and the group. here to put out this. twenty minute for the syrian soldier i met the media what. i did become and.

yet it didn't many people say that's not a provocation over many years israel of course say it is she that provoked the soldiers as the video showed. i don't think there is. more a group of kids and then. they. go on to lead the people. and on and genocide and if you didn't clean sinks it. and put the what do we should it's no matter the action against. is to resist evil if what you say is true the israeli military judge said that basically our head can be in prison for months the israeli military judge okayed that. she must be and what is that. this is you are as old now. i don't think his life has in the end is this big

building a needle is lighted the main venue is up and they have the bow of not too large to see the little diversion to know any brand new anything. i like to say is doing it well enough. to see if. i don't mistake what is it good that they don't get who was there was talking wasn't the machine them to do what they do but as institutions they didn't get it. they killed them on the scene and looked in to mean both didn't bloodlust the joy because i think what your sister died of course in the military. you were imprisoned for three years what about your worries for i had now i understand she was in isolation i i am up by the minute by my wanting my duty

is in the hands of my movies. i'm abroad as i have this strong deity who can sit here in the indian given a dip in his moment and get over this making we need. to be about lucy's strong but also she's a child in the hands of this war the any good at least in the me i need to meet human rights. constituency those that they don't like to see they continue and. then shouldn't. others think of my mom. and my wife and all of the other thing that that is not just dogs in the build up to these three hundred fifty charges there's a reason for that we must do and we need to acknowledge and we in the commission we will continue up. this stance because we haven't seemed to please the commission

is continual that. we need to be strong we need to strike you know we have a lot of tree down. in the. sea while pro palestinian activists around the world may say you are being psychologically tortured along with your family by the defacto british backed israeli government zionists claim you are basically making propaganda videos the video of your daughter was deliberately trying to provoke israel and your daughter has been called shirley temple and this is the name pallywood in a in a reference i suppose to be the opposite of all here with only one density a soldier to come on but this it be it in our. body what if they are not there told the kids they can see it's just that one dick were there

but he shot. the movie. this is me this is. the death in our home the so didn't come in clubhouse. board at the time we have that coming up it was going. to saw the lord of the study at the. table but now there me and be able who are with him like she had. told him i needed will make a plan was put everyone in the world now if if i do that if you have not had if there had been no camera there what do you think would have happened i think she looked. like. before it left in minutes and it. came in from the family when. it was then it was a committee i did she was nannie. well

that's amount to me me thank you well the spike in violence in the occupied territories doesn't look set to come down on the us president donald trump wants to slash u.s. aid to un relief programs in palestine i'm joined now by the grandson of a signatory to israel's independence the israeli special forces veteran mico pair led thanks for joining us back on going underground we just heard from bottom up tell me me why do you support him and what do you think of how emblematic his story is story is a story is it something that the rest of the world's eyes afraid to do which is that. she's. got an issue here where palestinian a palestinian. or a woman. to a man and

a young woman. and this is turning everybody. that shot her then i don't think you would have this conversation or actually maybe we would but then the rest of the world probably would not have paid any attention to this because it's. being killed because she dared to stand up. the whole world and encourage particularly in israel. with the ground. shook everybody's in in this in this. shop. lady this young girl to do this thing and say that the camera also saved her life i think that's a very likely that would've been a very likely scenario. and the fact that you know i think it's a point to pay attention to the details. we have a young lady whose home was invaded by armed gang i mean they go uniforms in the army. invade her privacy invaded her home and she not only pushed them to kick them

out of. out of her backyard front yard but also slap the soldier on top of that i think every father who has a daughter and i have a daughter you younger than her. would hope that his daughter having faced the situation like that would be able to do it she did and i think. support for. it should reality. absolutely the fact that the camera was there i think is really important gangs of course britain and the united states support those i.d.f. soldiers yes well written in the united states also have been involved in such a colonialism and oppression and the killing of innocent civilians for. even before israel started doing it so obviously they have shared values and i mentioned. over the last several years. hundreds of times countless relatives were killed and. of

course none of this is ever ever. that somebody stood up to be ladies and the world turned turned upside down. it's the united states paying the relief of palestinians we pay the palestinians hundreds of millions of dollars and get no appreciation or respect which is why he is now we're suggesting the cutting of u.s. aid to these u.n. programs for refugees in palestine. well you know if they don't pay for the refugees are either. very happy to go back to the only reason they're not going back often is because it's just that. i think if he wants to stop. that part of the solution the second part of the solution which must be. part of the solution is to allow them to return force israel to open its borders and allow the indigenous people people who still have the keys to their homes and. return to

their homes and then if you can you read billion dollars or four billion dollars a year that it receives from the united states to bring them in and help them and. help them to establish themselves back in there in their home so it's not it's a two part equation. where the u.n. relief and works agency has been saying that this is the worst crisis of most severe crisis in seventy years and could threaten the entire middle east. i think he's right there but. there's no question that the arse they are hurting the most the most vulnerable population they're hurting the most vulnerable of course of the poor and they're not tour. people or they're poor because they're forced into a few. by having been kicked out of their homes to begin with and they don't want to stay there are quite happy to go back. because they were kicked out of the well just finally and briefly why do you think most mainstream media here in britain or

in the nato nations is not interested in what you just have to say about the conflict and certainly hasn't really been covering the story of. to me me who is of course now. i think. demonstrate exactly i mean i should not have had to push those soldiers out of our home and slap a soldier we should have been there. to protect our cousins to protect the family and to protect millions of children who have to put up with this kind of violence every single day the fact that this is not being shown and it's not being reported on mainstream media because exactly that. they will not stand up to the forces young palestinians like or to do this themselves it's a crime over a crime the first crime is that they were not there to begin with to prevent this from happening and the second thing is a lot of reporting to show. our audience and

a lack of courage by the media and the rest of the world to stand up and protect the palestinian children from israeli aggression israeli terror. thank you. hope you enjoyed that episode of going underground for my latest season will be back on the eleventh of april for a brand new season of going underground but you can still keep in touch with us while we're away on facebook twitter and instagram. time about email but of the entire you might even want to get it. but then again. and again and i mean by my mom come on here i'm a god you'll walk through me to the beach. making the move to india that can kill you so you just have images to say so if you

want. to. know what about the natural again that be me i don't see you getting like city getting. big you seem to hold them feeling hopeful when it comes to cable you don't change the rules allow for. the most expensive fish in the world each one selling for tens of thousands of euros it continues to grow its entire life if it was thirty years old you might

have a two ton fish out there and yet they don't get that big today because we're way too good at catching. it's only remnants of a much larger mission was once there was much more widely distributed we have politicians that are in office for a few years they have to get reelected everything is very very short term our system is not suited and is not cleared for long term survival and that's why we have the catastrophes. i. i i i. i. i. i.
