10:30 am
well let's start watch mohawks. what would you. like. with. the bottom. line. like you know i got. three. weeks. well the watching the hawks i am i robot and on. and shark king current events. chemical weapons attack that can actually be verified by any. really truly independent investigator investigative body has even been investigated at the time to investigate it but now we're in this intelligence data you know that's the
10:31 am
excuse for zero zero we always know we always are the bad guy you guys never do anything wrong and the bad guys always do things wrong you know i mean look i get labeled a conspiracy theorist or things like that all the time i mean you know i go yeah but you know at the end of the day you know let's just look over what we do know. the chemical attack occurred late on saturday night in a town of douma which is outside of damascus they've been fighting with the rebels there you know i think brokered a little bit of a peace than they're kind of fell apart and i believe now after all of this they actually are kind of back letting these guys kind of leave the town because the syrian government has controlled them. both the syrian russian government denied any involvement in the alleged chemical weapons attack. and. you know how we know about it well i mean the white helmets too we've had several photos and videos although we don't know if you picked up right guys i don't. did the syrian
10:32 am
observatory play is the one that's in a suburb of london that did they were going in on that well you know that's the great thing about syria is there's always the information the flows freely is always backed by good solid goods whole brilliant. police state all source obviously you know i was curious about this is like you know people love the label conspiracy there's like a squirrel in a movie theater squirrels when it was already fit when i was theorised my politicians in the e.u. yes this is something i guess might occur because every time there is a move toward peace our moves actually take the united states out of this entire curfuffle what happens there's a chemical weapons attack what happens when minute shelter and what happens oh my gosh we're just a certain point you know that kind of you know you got to the logic of it right blood has a certain point to go see like a drought if you know that the u.s.
10:33 am
would do you know is there and we might leave why would you do something that would draw the u.s. . there's no real large it just depends on which side you're looking at and who you're trying to demonize or who you're not trying to demonize and that means that you always have this well how can we make putin or assad or trump all look bad they're not caring about people which is the biggest problem with that i see with the conflict in syria and the same problem we have with the conflict when we talk about north korea these are people you don't hear jake tapper or you know a massive b.b.c. or these people really talking about people unless it's a narrative that sits well unless it's gone on this perfect child or it's the perfect child in the back of an ambulance unless you have a this perfect one that you can sit there and wipe tears away on your own on your news program it's not as why you play so you have to have the situation is more like a game it's a game it's a game of chess and writing for fairness and and accuracy. porting gregory observed
10:34 am
a lot of that about how do you value the people in syria that we claim the progressives and liberals are claiming that we're trying to protect so it's the syrians quote who are not cast as humans with intrinsic value and rights to self-determination and self governance but as pieces and a geo political chess for that american use as it sees fit to outmaneuver russia and iran and so here you have the russian people the iranian people the syrian people all caught between this idea that what we have to we have to we have to fix things for you you can't make that we can't i mean look here's the deal they don't even think we as americans can read the internet and make it destroys on who we vote for obviously we're too stupid to know anything we have to be told so you know i guess these sort of you know when you talk about pundits in the media sort of forget during all of this are those these observations about things that are going on that we don't have permission the united states does not have permission to be there this could backfire and blow back on us on
10:35 am
a level we've never seen before because ultimately we're not supposed to be there you know we have two to four thousand troops depending on who you ask in syria we don't have a legal right to be there and that's not something you know dehumanize the people and make them into props for your political morion demurrer in doing meddling or whatever we're calling it these days but not actually think about how your narrative affects the people of syria. that's the problem here with the day because you know you sued over and over and over and over again the blood that was under the pieces robot marginalize the people make the american people but the letter what we do is right just. facebook's mother russia of social media mark zuckerberg will be facing a congressional panel this week to answer for facebook's role in selling off users' data and allowing domestic and foreign entities to skirt election laws in the u.s. on monday zuckerberg put on his best impression of a humble and repentant c.e.o. and posted this message to facebook about saying that the company. would be quote
10:36 am
a stablish ng an independent election research commission that will solicit research on the effects of social media on the elections and democracy and give those researchers access to facebook's resources so they can draw unbiased conclusions about facebook's role in elections and and who might these unbiased academics footing the bill for this commission be well the laura and john arnold foundation houston based private fund started by john arnold a former enron trader and anti pension activist who got into trouble in two thousand and fourteen when he bankrolled an anti pension documentary for p.b.s. next on the commission is the democracy fund and the omidyar network both run by pierre omidyar former chairman and american billionaire the head of first look media which publishes the entered sept since first likes the first looks inception there been steady claims of corporate power standing in the way of their claims of independence germinal journalism the third member of the commission is the john s. and james l. knight foundation with transfer funds to preserve and expand first amendment rights
10:37 am
in the digital age through research and education and by supporting litigation in favor of protecting freedom of expression and the press the william and flora hewlett foundation is also in the mix as they are one of the largest grant writers in america giving to liberal and progressive programs and conservative causes the alfred p. sloan foundation works under the auspices of enhancing the public understanding of science and technology their most well known grants being given to the. dance and hamptons film festivals and last but certainly not the least horrifying is the charles koch foundation an organization that has been accused of strong arming universities it gives grants to by retaining final approval on economic professors and even inventing the positions of white supremacists within universities so do we really think that a bunch of billionaires known for working the system are going to protect a system meant to work for the rest of us. no no probably
10:38 am
not because the love that they all got involved with government and their system of spoils of you know i look at our government and the whole we're not going to work and. to tell me more about this commission does is like really fascinating to me that the daughter world and the permanently fix a problem but the people on capitol hill in the mainstream media want to believe we have but there's no actual there to be excuse every offer an excuse as you know he set himself up look zuckerberg and facebook set themselves up for this. to not know that this was going to backfire to not know these things to not know that you should be keeping an eye on election laws when you have an election year going on and people are buying ads and you know there are laws clear and that's what's weird but when you look at the money is this commission to think that it's going to make this huge i do they're not funding the studies this is not funding the studies they have no approval over the topics they have no input on anything that's going on
10:39 am
they're just giving these billionaires and their nonprofits this huge amount of data so. do you think that there is any way that with having this sort of group the granted charles is the better of coke zero. zero zero these the diet coke of the koch brothers do you think that they can at any point at least gather people that can come up with anything that would help find the balance between security and privacy. i think that they will in terms of like putting on a good show for the public yeah you know any time you see these big groups of like you know big time names come in and things like that a lot of times it's more for the p.r. factor of it so will will come up with some really cute little ideas and present them in a little thing to the public in the media and say look what facebook we're going to come up with these changes and this is all work because people i think fail to realize at the end of the day facebook as much as it's social networking service it's the end of the day and i had servers that's all it is that it's designed the
10:40 am
very design of it is to just you know sell you things well you know what is there no profit and right and if there's no you know yeah i guess they you know people talking to each other and that's worthless unless there's no profit in it. yeah i mean but things were gives in deep trouble because they're looking down the barrel of some serious fine sport not protecting over two billion dollars worth of two billion. dollars more if they feel they signed a consent decree with the federal trade commission and twenty eleven in two thousand and eleven that says that facebook is quote barred from making misrepresentations about the privacy or security of consumers personal information and that they were supposed to enable the help of independent auditor's ensure the privacy rights of user of users that was protected or each violation of such an order may result in a civil penalty get this of up to sixteen thousand or forty thousand per incident per day that's a massive massive massive number when you have that comes out to. charlie generally
10:41 am
and i count i think you were probably yeah i mean the trillions. dollars and all of this is not for letting russia in troll factories my. this is all city politicians got two years that data and yet you know that's a big part of it caught some winger data that's the whole deal you don't get to sell and make a point you don't just on make a profit off of it. off something we didn't give you permission and that we weren't aware you were going to use and sell especially when it's so important personal security to think that it was ok to just be. all right now as we have record watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered in facebook and twitter sphere poll shows that are to dot com coming up we examine the latest death and tragedy take place along the gaza israel border with r.t. correspond to bamako with the title stimulus march for

10:44 am
the march of return protests continue along the israeli border in gaza so is the tragic killing and wounding of palestinian. tester's as of this broadcast at least thirty one protesters have been killed and over a thousand injured including a palestinian photojournalist after the last weekend of violence the international criminal court has now issued a warning to both israeli and the los officials over their actions both real and accused and the protests have not just been contained to the israeli gaza border over the weekend the israeli embassy here in washington d.c. saw activists gather in front of its stores or to stand cohen has more. i'm outside the israeli embassy where dozens of protesters have come from around the region to demand an end to u.s. complicity as israel guns down an armed palestinian protesters in the gaza strip we
10:45 am
have here if you think that that is not acceptable we are here to think that money . and buy all of that people stop being targeted this way among those killed by israel is photojournalist yasser more taja co-founder of the award winning outlet i needed this is the last footage murtaza would ever shoot before he was gunned down by an israeli soldier while he wore a protective jacket marked press known for his use of a drone to capture footage israel's defense minister avigdor lieberman said that's why he was shot dead however i media denied murtaza was operating a drone when he was shot the israeli military conceded it had no evidence that either him or taj or anyone else was using a drone during friday's protest among the protestors were palestinians whose family members had been shot in the protests in gaza my fourteen year old cousin was
10:46 am
recently shot this past week was shot in both legs their weapons where the bullets exploded and a person's legs on both of his legs so they're trying to save his legs one of the chants you hear these protesters use is in support of b.d.s. the boycott divestment sanctions movement which they see is the only method to force israel to comply with international law when you look at the boycott divestment sanctions list the b.d.s. less and you look at the things that are either created in the state of israel whether they're exploiting palestinian labor or building factories on the stolen land there are a lot of ways that we can combat the profiting off the state of israel off of the palestinians and their land activists marion ingram said it was her experience fleeing nazi germany the motivated. her to come to the protest i am here because i was a pressure against any human being and being a holocaust survivor i especially. protest israelis
10:47 am
occupation of palestinian with israeli officials refusing to change open fire orders and more demonstrations planned in the upcoming weeks this bloody scenario may play out again and again in washington dan cohen artsy. called joins us now to talk a little bit more in-depth about that story it's interesting what has been the response over the thought of this photo journalist yasser montage or. have we heard anything from like the committee to protect journalism freedom the press foundation has anyone spoken out about this already i mean we have seen statements from the major press foundations they did condemn israel's killing of. but he was actually not even the only photo journalist the only journalist who was targeted mohammed as a new and another photojournalist was targeted he was shot in the hand i mean there's you know about
10:48 am
a thousand people who were shot several of which were journalists and i mean it's been kind of overshadowed i mean what we see clear evidence of what i mean what those activists describe as a massacre incontrovertibly all evidence it's been overshadowed by this huge push for war in syria this incredible mass media propaganda effort to really snatch you know war from the jaws of peace and the trumpet ministration has while saying you know our side and putin are are guilty of you know this chemical attack based on allegations from they were delivered by jaish al islam a group that's hardly different from al-qaeda so i don't know how we trust them they've at the same time blocked a u.n. investigation into israel. killing of unarmed protesters so it really you know shows the moral fraud that you know this administration is one of the things that you bring that up and it's at the international criminal court they raised concerns
10:49 am
over what's happening on both sides both by hamas and the i.d.f. on the gaza strip. do you think that the i.c.c. will actually investigate the war crimes that are clearly happening well i mean in this current you know in the current demonstrations hamas has hamas nor any palestinians have fired a single shot hamas is hardly involved the accusations of potential war crimes date back to two thousand and fourteen the fifty one day war in which israel killed twenty two hundred palestinians mostly civilians and seventy seven israelis died most of which were almost all were invading soldiers and so the the current round of attacks on gaza. the i.c.c. prosecutor said she's watching and so we don't see the same urgency the level of urgency that we would see for you know an african dictator who was you know gunning down protesters and if you look at the who the i.c.c.
10:50 am
has prosecuted in since its inception it has been all african leaders except for milosevic and so i mean it's as much as i would love to see it it's really hard to see the i.c.c. going after someone who's not you know a nato designated enemy they have a track record there now we have seen them kind of reaching them start looking into the afghanistan war cry was there a moment ago like a million and some odd complaints or something like that but yeah you haven't seen anything actually go to trial or go to court yet one interesting thing is you know last week when this first happened you saw this kind of like mass shooting and mass wounding by the israeli forces against against these protesters. you don't ever want to have will boil your rules of engagement do they really have to be this harsh you know these are kids rolling some tires and caught you know and a lot of them. i'm sure it's scary to look at but no one is crossing the border from what i've heard have has israel done anything to change the rules of engagement have done anything to kind of pull back and say hey we're losing at
10:51 am
least the p.r. side you know we're losing the p.r. side of this well that's you know that's kind of the liberal argument in israel is this is bad not because we're killing unarmed protesters and that's absolutely horrific and criminal and totally deprived but because it looks bad for international you know for israel's international image it does damage but from top israeli officials there is been actually doubling down on the open fire policy i mean it's all out of the open days before the last friday's protest the first one in which in which. more than more than a dozen were killed. in israeli the israeli military chief of staff guy the eyes in code i'm sorry said we're putting one hundred snipers out there and they all have open fire permission and so it was advertised i mean and then it's exactly as he said it would happen and since then they've doubled down on it said nothing is going to change and so this is you know the culture of impunity that we've
10:52 am
really you cultivated with israel where they can just mowed down protesters in it's basically silence. what do you think has to change for the world to you know in both situations whether it we're talking about you know women and children and missing people in syria or in gaza or and north korea it's always should we bomb should we are should we do that what so how bad what is it at least from your point because you've been in these places. why is it so hard to realize these are human beings why why is it still easy for the mainstream press and especially to just literally say these people's lives are worth less than people's lives right well i mean we live you know in the age of us imperialism where. after world one after world war one the other empires died and we came out and and then we defeated the soviet union and now basically we have this global hegemony.
10:53 am
in which on one hand we can totally support apartheid israel gunning down protesters and then moralize as syria burns as if we had nothing to do with it meanwhile we had one of the largest cia operations in the billion dollar a year arm and arm and train program to so-called moderate rebels that work hand in glove with jihad as groups like al qaida which should be familiar to people in this country as the group that carried out nine eleven yes and so on that i mean it's incredible what we've seen is you know the complete media rehabilitation of al qaeda that i mean i just never thought was possible in this country i want to ask you you were with the protesters this past weekend out in front of the israeli embassy and all that was one thing that struck me about them and was a good interview was to go with them is were they i mean obviously the will of the woman lost her or her cousin got hit in both legs are these people that you feel
10:54 am
like were they inspired to do this by last week and what happened there or was it something that they kind of always about have this fight and try and get rights for palestine well i think this is you know what we saw this weekend was kind of the core group of palestine solidarity activists i mean as proud as i am as great as it is to see so many people out there it was rather small considering we're in the nation's capital you know maybe seventy eighty people out there you know in european capitals we see much larger demonstrations and i mean this is the core group many of those people have family members we have you know mico peleg who was there who is an israeli soldier and you know after his niece died in a suicide bombing it became really started to think. about israeli policy and the effects it had as well we should all down called thank you so much for the reporting you've done over the subject and always a pleasure having your show but you can see. it has long been believed that
10:55 am
the hard sciences that require mathematics are based soley on ability in fact the study by florida state university last year found that boys are more likely than girls to hold the perception that mathematical ability can be developed through learning rather than being a fixed talent you're born with and with states across america struggling to fill open jobs because of a skills gap in staff companies like shover all are looking to the future and the future is a long war fever element has that chevron is partnering with tech bridge fab five day shin engineer girl on the project to lead the way to fund programs at primary secondary and higher education that encourages young women to take up some careers letting girls know that science technology engineering and mathematics can make the world a better place that they encourage mentor and role models and to provide funding and assistance to teachers and schools sorely needed mystery and age in addition they will focus hard on showing girls that failure can be fun and that they don't
