a corner. in july twenty seventh team hunted also to a freelance journalist working with the two militant shelling in syria. so on a second focus the home team has established a holiday also to have a memorial they will recognize war reporters who often risked their lives with the sake of the truth and through that peace you can submit to your published works in a video or britain form go to a little note on t.v. dot com into now. most definitely wasn't a victim of any kind of that operation or the person because that would destroy the trust and could have to be true as far as exchanges sort of concerned and they are dependent on the because they certainly have to get their people back if they get into trouble.

los angeles the city of luxury and fame but also an alarming number of people living in the streets. simple fact in l.a. he's there's just not enough shelter even if people on the streets right now decided to come in there's nowhere to come in it's been a struggle. and this man found his own response to the problem and constructed dozens of tiny homes for people in need of shelter when you have nothing and nowhere to go. you know having something like this may as well be a castle but do the authorities accept such solution tiny house on a city parking space is not a solution. someone monitoring the site otherwise it'll be a free for all they're a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. ok
6:06 pm
ok well. there is a patient advocacy group for just about every element these days the american diabetes association the lupus foundation of america the american a hangnail association member but there are some serious questions about how all these politically influential groups get their funding for more on this we go to our senior patient advocate now and again. look for really really what i do in that whole game drop you just conveniently leave out my all women constipation awareness group.
6:07 pm
we need the press the only thing slower than our cash flow is our bowels. unlike other patient advocacy groups like the american diabetes association that got two point nine million dollars from eli lilly lilly is a multi billion dollar pharma company that makes insulin its terror. this is icicle is sean hannity's sole it's ok that's impossible since he never had one but it makes sense they'd get money from the companies in making the drugs keeping them alive he wanted when we is just one of fourteen companies that gave patient groups one hundred sixteen million dollars in two thousand and fifteen alone plus if it's another golden compass would have included them years ago in the position payment sunshine act a law that required payments to physicians from drug makers and devices to be registered on a public website but patient groups were not trusting the bill so this is more like
6:08 pm
an act of charity like voluntary at a soup kitchen or catherine zeta jones having such difficulty. she's doing the lord's work. as is the lord of the so there. isn't this or that they're glued to the view because these groups will spend time pushing they are drugs right rather than advocate for lower priced drugs or the benefits of generic drug generic version of anything is never better. ask anyone who has been the times square. those guys get hands i kept saying hello nobody thought i was yelling elmo. but tell us pharma cash these groups couldn't be as vocal now they test the file capitol hill about new meds they start letter writing campaigns they start social media campaign. one big pharma
6:09 pm
lobbyists do that's what they do how is what these groups do any different from lobbyists well it differs in that pharma companies don't have to report money they give the patient groups the way they do with lobbying expenses which may be why the fourteen companies that gave one hundred sixty million dollars the patient group supported only sixty three million and lobbying activities. how convenient for a major corporation to find a loophole that gets them more money you know they've taken a lot of these payson groups with cash but it won't change the fact that they care more about profit than the people the american diabetes association may have millions from eli lilly but they've repeatedly raised prices on its best selling insulins when the medicines have been out for you know they've been around for decades a patient group has no incentive to call out eli lilly or any pharma company when their cash flow is the life blood of the all right i know but either we take their

to our international life with me daniel hawkins wherever you are today thanks for joining us this hour. the u.n. backed chemical watchdog the o.p.c. w has announced its fact finding mission has visited one of the sites of an alleged chemical attack in the city of duma to collect samples samples will be sent to a lab in the netherlands and other designated laboratories the findings will be compiled in a report of the state's party to the chemical weapons convention and. that it will consider future steps including possible further visits the russian foreign ministry has expressed concerns over alleged attempts by the organization's experts to limit the amount of visited sites and interview witnesses and last week unconfirmed reports of the incident were used as a justification by america the u.k. and france through its missiles against syria the u.n. special envoy for the country has said peace efforts have to be relaunched following the u.s. led assault. we never expected it to be. in very very

potential danger of. peace and security is this what happened last week and it's not helped now for cheap in geneva. by the three countries the u.s. the u.k. and france have not only bombed the magic chemical facilities in syria but also bombed the geneva peace process meanwhile the un security council has gathered for an informal meeting in a secluded farmhouse in southern sweden so creature eneral antonio gutierrez again stressed there could be no military solution to the conflict nonetheless admitted there was still a long way to go to bring members of the security council together on the issue. although no actual categorical evidence of chemical weapons being used that was put forward the assad government's been accused of gassing civilians and even before the watchdog could start its probe of the u.s. u.k. and france launched air strikes a lot of the basis of social media reports. we

cannot launch the united states cannot launch a military attack based upon innuendo and without real facts again we saw this in two thousand and three and we're still living through that risk consequences of that decision if you're going to launch a military attack particularly in this part of the world where so many other players are potentially involved such as russia iran. and as well as syria delf it could easily cause a slippery slope of
6:24 pm
a catastrophic disaster in that region if not in the world the ability for escalation at that point military escalation is great and we saw that in iraq so are we going to be seeing history repeating itself but on a larger scale. in the west has cooled a missile strikes a humanitarian intervention is a different take from the boycott. after allegations of a chemical attack syrians were immediately reassured because in case you missed it heavily armed westerners will plays well bolero way with a humanitarian intervention says. missiles from france britain and the us are like no other because they combine high tech killing power with good intention there are plenty of other countries involved in the syrian cluster but it's only the really nice ones doing it for humanitarian purposes the anger saxons on the poles all traditionalist self to old when it comes to weapons

that they think the conventional kind they've tried the chemical was on the biological arms and you pay a lot and well who won world war two korea vietnam iraq iran on their own to do so when they tell you they'd really rather you didn't use them they are all fools even from experience there's a message to just put some terrorists that is sick to be functional weapons on the possible by the from western homs deal is because that way you can fire them safely from the moral high ground these three amigos dumped them friday for a into syria i think humanitarian intervention they need to buy it millions of dollars worth of humanitarian aid into the country started shouting humanely into leaving out a million bucks apiece while every little christmas cell represents a one off the million dollar aid package only premier nation and getting help to the people who really need to look to the syria mission really achieve apart from

going up a few empty buildings where everyone has been told to take them myself anyway releases under the car in washington london and paris this kind of p.r. is the ball such a case striking a lesson into syria makes for a much better headline that story. greg zen. is getting a release thing of their. mission in. north korea says it's stopping its nuclear and missile tests with immediate effect leader kim jong un made it out sort of a party meeting that's according to the state news agency with the details here's jeff and. now that nuclear ization is complete and verified circumstances we did not need any further nuclear tests medium long range intercontinental missile tests the north korean leader made that surprise announcement early on saturday morning and it came with
6:27 pm
a promise that peering will never use the nuclear weapons they already have except in the event of a nuclear threat it was also claimed that previous tests have allowed them to successfully militarize warheads and develop the means of delivery likely in light of that fact japan had a skeptical reaction to the news with the japanese prime minister promising to keep a close watch moscow which has long been working for a diplomatic solution to the crisis pointed out that this is just the beginning of a long process and other powers will need to be ready to make concessions as well. we are glad to note that the situation on the peninsula is the other thing in a positive direction in line with the road proposed by russia and china for resolution of the korean issue the first stages assume a mutual freeze on military activity in the region as well as setting up direct contacts between north korea the u.s. and south korea followed by multilateral talks aimed at a comprehensive resolution of all issues on the korean peninsula including the nuclear issue the north longtime ally china stressed its continued role in the

resolving the conflict while expressing hope that p.i. nyang will continue on the path to peace through dialogue with the international community which is something that planning vowed to make a priority just the day before we saw direct phone links being installed between the north and south korean leaders as they prepare for their first summit since two thousand and seven and a much anticipated meeting between donald trump and kim jong un is also in the works trump tweeted that he is looking forward to that while praising the news of the program suspension meanwhile u.s. vice president mike pence so little progress could not have been achieved without trump and his strategy of maximum pressure however analysts we've heard from believe the latest breakthrough comes because of the work of many players in the region not trump stream of threats president has been threatening north korea all along and don't forget north korea. firing this testing missiles and and carrying out tests until felder. acquire the ability is to deliver a sort of devastating nuclear deterrence the united states even before president
6:29 pm
has given the cold shoulder to north korea and a north korean learned the united states was not to be trusted because a wild north korea at one time tried to demolish some of their facilities you never get anything in return so this time around kim is learning the tricks and try to acquire credible capability is. our sales. world cup tickets to russia have produced some pretty interesting patterns america despite not qualifying of course has the largest number of foreign funds coming over while numbers from the u.k. are surprisingly small despite the england team booking their place at the tournament now a number of reports in the british media of late have claimed any fans who travel will be safe the reason given is the supposed threat posed by russian hooligans over a new documentary has been looking at the problem in europe itself football beasts
