the veterans who are now suing k.b.r. because of their what they believe service connected health injuries say that k.b.r. short cut it didn't install center raiders when they should have had burned all this hazardous waste when it was a against the o.t. regulations to do so and as a result they're sick of all the contracts that k.b.r. unhealed were received require them to comply with e.p.a. regulations the allegation is that k.b.r. rather than complying with the contract complying with these environmental regulations disposing only of what should be disposed of using incinerators doing it the right way for reasons often related to profit margins was disposing of dangerous toxins in a way that directly impacted the health of soviet troops. seeing stuff that was nuclear biological and chemical products this is

a do not truck tires all types of styrofoam polystyrene batteries trucks one of the stuff. that should have been segregated out it was mine it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out if you're k.b.r. employee and you're throwing. biological medical waste into the. into the burning tires and anything else. that is known to be a toxin. then you're you're careless and you're you're putting people's health in jeopardy and that's exactly would a lot of these k.b.r. contractors were doing. to or for me to accept. is if i were. working for k.b.r. and they have knowledge of. hazardous chemicals on the ground they cause cancer.

then noticed put in miami and i had a prius that is unnecessary. i'm. very upset over that. today very very upset. that they did that. the military exercise regular daily oversight and supervision and periodically issued evaluation reports of k.b.r. performance not just on waste disposal but across all the many functions that k.b.r. performed in the war theatres so the military was aware of what k.b.r. was doing and if they thought that k.b.r. was doing those kind of things then they would have been in position to make those practices you know change to halt very little government oversight on the off scene of the major personnel in directing the actual work force were kellogg brown and root personnel. i've seen time and time again cave your claim that the reason why

they didn't do what they were supposed to do is they were allegedly being told to do something or working under the military supervision my experience has been and what i've seen in sworn testimony is that too often personnel were more or less directing the military about what was going to be done rather than the right way. when i noted the violations infractions and i improper actions on run route i reported him to management road force and i was basically told shut up they would make the decisions about a management decision. the case or rick lambert and what k.b.r. tried to do with him when he tried to expose what was going on and reveal some of the misconduct really points to an attitude that i've seen before or k.b.r. is more concerned about keeping the truth down than fixing the problem. we know

from the g.a.o. reports that have come out since you know way two thousand and nine two thousand and ten that both the dio d. and k.b.r. were not operating these burn pits within their own regulations they were burning as are this materials all over iraq and afghanistan you know this not only from the veterans but through g.a.o. reports the g.a.o. also found that many of these parapets were still operating as late as two thousand and thirteen and this is at least two years after they were told to shut them down or they would have been a lot better off using incinerators incinerators use less. fuel i believe they're more energy efficient and they release less talks with us and so that means that any military personnel soldiers and others that are in the

area aren't going to be exposed to toxic chemicals toxic fumes that kind of thing to operate the burn pits was much cheaper of them to do to put in high temperature and sewers cost would have been astronomical and there are. many veterans i've spoke to believe that k.b.r. was merely cutting corners. to save money my understanding is they were given the money to do the incinerator and so it wasn't a budgetary issue this may have been a cheaper way to go this may have been an easier way to go but it certainly wasn't what was best for our soldiers so far in addition to the congressional inspector general investigations that of the documented the misconduct there's been hundreds of decorations sworn statements by former employees military officers documenting how the operation of the burn pits. it was exposing troops to the worst toxins

known to man rather than properly disposing of these things like a promise. easy he. he. he. he. and i come to find out that blog where i was for about six months was built on a chemical weapons manufacturing storage facility that we bombed the hell out of during the war and then we went to build a base there with my understanding to bleep it in with new ground samples of what was already in the ground or contaminated and they found that the most severe illnesses were coming from five different bases in iraq these bases used to be former chemical weapons facilities the saddam hussein operated it was actually told to me by a former k.b.r.

employee that they knew the ground was hot meaning it was contaminated. or speech or something flabbergasted i'm angry i want to talk about these claims that are being served by plaintiff lawyers who effectively are saying we don't agree with the decisions that were made by the military there were so we think there were safer ways as we said ten years later five years later we think there were safer ways of disposing of waste and somebody should be accountable for not doing it the way that we think was safer or as often suggested that back and try to wrap themselves in military and say all this is about is second guessing military decisions about how to dispose of. waste where dispose of waste the problem with that argument that i've seen is that in most cases in fact across the board k.b.r. was wrong in making decisions often concealing what they were doing from the military and they were derelict and i know it. i believe in all these illnesses and

inventors and partly because i think he's incinerators. them went for offline if they were just found out. in the mean if they would have realized. and we did in the fog of war we got to fix the mess in the took action to fix it. he didn't. now it turns out there was something else in the contract because all that wasn't good then an indemnity folks so screw anything up they don't have to pay for the bill get stuck on the american taxpayer there would be an indemnification even for negligence on unreasonable acts by k.b. or managers agents and borders if they fell within the definition of what is covered even if they caused the injury or death to these. but under the provisions of those clause that is correct even if they cause injury or

death to civilian employees. under the provisions of a cause that's correct even if they cause injury or death to american soldiers. does not and does not carve out an exception for civilian with our soldiers which means that means that if in fact the activities fall within the definition of the clause i think k.b.r. could could apply for reimbursement preferable even for death or injury to the american soldier that is correct even for the death or injury to a british servicemen. that's correct even death or injury to an iraqi national or other for moral national working on a cave your project. that's correct they were going to get fully reimbursed for every single legal penny they spent as well as any damages found against them and probably one of the biggest bail outs of a government contractor that's been documented so far. the indemnification

is is absolutely criminal if we have over one hundred thousand soldiers ill it just shows it's a good example of you know how much our government really cares about our soldiers are just pawns. they're angry they're far straighted they feel as though they gave . everything they had to the us government they believed down till sam had their back when they sent them over to iraq and afghanistan to fight the war they believed when they came back they'd be taking care of. the military the v.a. are supposed to take care of their veterans. and are supposed to provide good health here and a good transition in the military and the military and v.a. has failed miserably on doing this and not only want to put issues but you know a lot of mental health issues and everything else there are many people who are

working with the v.a. who feel that studies have been either augmented belated have been prone to bias in favor of. results that my error or that's having psychosomatic problems instead of physical problems. there's survival guide ecstacy just like all the stars simply have all this is. the series there you don't stand a. good repatriations look at the last seven years. still of the century you guys are worth. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to

foundation let it be an arms race based on often scary dramatic bad to follow the only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. to. the office of public health conducts large studies of the health of american veterans covert justice studies produce results that did not support the office of public health and written policy they don't release them. this applies to data recording adverse health consequences of environmental exposures such as burn pits in iraq and afghanistan and taught six exposures in the gulf war on the rare

occasions when embarrassing study results are released are manipulated to make them unintelligible so there seems to be an ongoing struggle between the truth seekers and the government when it. sort of getting to the bottom of the exposure. health the fact that veterans are now experiencing. been a hopeful terrible experience for. the for the claim itself to the v.a. to. either compensated or to get medical treatment. is going to home. they. are not there no matter what the. most of their employees are angry and seriously nasty. i don't

want to go in there i always thought that they would have the best care and the reality. down to me it depends on who you get is a provider but the bureaucracy at the v.a. for me is what has been a nightmare to deal with getting bills from the labs for a thousand two thousand dollars for blood work and staff call in the v.a. tell them i'm keep getting these bills call in the lab company on the v.a. supposed to pay these bills and they don't and you're already sick with chemo and radiation olsen all these bills are coming and nobody's paying them. i mean i mean right now we're quarter million dollars in debt from cancer. we're bankrupt. and the v.a. still denies my claim that it's not this not for. exposures. the politicians the congressional people that we sought to help us unfortunate drop is like a hot potato swims we make sen. so we have no resolution right now the v.a.

still do minor cases we have attorneys for sure you know there are no contumacy were just were are you know i just hope we can make it through a long. time so i can make with your golden rule the v.a. system itself. about fourteen years or for me it's no benefits that's why after ten years i don't get the benefits because or i think the v.a. should take more. be more responsible with these guys because they have already put their lives on the line for us why would we. not give them the proper medical attention that they need why give them an appointment three months out and then. send it through you know prolong it even more to maybe. eight minus nine months a year and then even fighting for their benefits if they don't. then

book person twelve months of them coming back and he doesn't get a diagnosis forget it they're screwed because they don't see it at its service related service connected the burden of proof is on the veteran they have to be able to service connected it doesn't matter whether you have it or not or the condition can happen during the day you enter to the left that's the big window that you have to fight. iraq afghanistan war injury is our generation's agent orange. if you look at the historical precedents with agent orange for decades it was not acknowledged and then after decades in his study. then finally soldiers were training. so to go with iraq afghanistan were longing for we can't wait that long poor the burn pits to reckon it's not the pay's that the

guys are in the females are dying from the burn pits it's on my fast the illnesses are showing up in the sentence a lot sooner he put in his time he sacrificed he gave everything that it was possible to get and. and more proud of that and we don't regret that and he doesn't regret that and we would serve again our sons have enlisted so it's not the service that's a problem and then things happen in war and we understand that there's a cost and and we will carry with that because there are some things that are worth the cost but the other side of that is that at the end of it they take care of you and every single time there's a war we do this song and dance with the government where they say no no it wasn't

us no it wasn't that it's just you it's you know i don't know what it was it's just the look and it's not every single time and when is it the last time when is it that they just say ok. this was it and you did your part let us. what does that time come where you're not fighting afterwards the fight should be done i don't see no way at this because with the agent orange the vietnam veteran still suffering still fighting to be recognized the top of that gulf war veterans fighting to be recognized now you're adding another million or so iraq and afghanistan. veterans fighting to be recognized that's two generations at least of the men and women who are sick. and they have

overwhelmed a v.a. system that was not prepared to handle that to compensate every. soldier marine airman and sailor that was on the ground that are complaining about their exposure illnesses from their exposure from the burn pits. would break would bring literally send a v.a. broke and. they don't want to pay it so the waiting in the decades a lot of those soldiers will die in time. and they won't have to pay and. call for help and. get the middle finger. the vs new model is. delayed and i hope he does. the veterans that i speak to are both mad and they're bewilder some of them are so sick that they don't know if they wake up in the morning and i'm not exaggerating every year or something every year something

that's taken away from the quality of life that he has and that we have as a family. and i mean unique. in that i would can just walk into a restaurant and sit down and he will have a meal. because he's sitting there he's trying to. keep him sound busy on his own in time no uncomfortable for. the simple things that. we take for granted. that it doesn't have. our heart. what. what would it what is that it took

a nothing like what does it hold. it's just going to get worse. i'd like to think the future is bright. but that's my optimistic guy trying to i think a lot of times go on myself because if i read about a disease that i hate. it just gets progressively worse. so i don't know i mean maybe i get a miracle and god heals me and my wife is wonderful and she and i trust on like nothing's ever open. but right now it's too much take care of my husband take care of every other. woman's has fended and. man's wife who served who did their duty because they believed in it because they believe that it

was the right thing to do. that's all we're asking. there's absolutely a moral obligation to fix it when these veterans come home and they're saying no matter what they're sick we have an obligation as the american public to take care of these men and women who are sacrificed. for us i. i hope that. this will have an ending where they jump on this and really story. aggressively treating the soldiers at the v.a. and but i don't see this ending well at all. the outcome is is going to be gloom and doom. can't handle it i didn't catch it everything i

can't can't can't i don't you don't wonder. which. each each ricky your fight is going to continue on and i and. we are going to. carry where you have. and what you bought for. her to the president of the united states. so that it helps others. which. he.

for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of alternative 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 the huge amount of pressure you have to go meet the center of the beach but how would you and will show the great game the grid if you are the rock at the back nobody gets us to you we need you to get the doll going let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join that for the two thousand and three and world cup in russia meet the special one it was also appreciated me to say the rio p.r.t. teams latest edition make up as we go so i need to just say look.

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. running 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 in order 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 you craft someone wanted touring the site otherwise it'll be a free for all and is there a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. i've

been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten points calling prime stamping each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be culled from rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent just last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit first check and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one business shows you can't afford to miss the one only. you know all. you never know what's around the corner and you never know what's in the pub even to walk into the sack simon it's

that not knowing that's where the adrenaline in which comes from. coming in is a move by definition and the extremes will probably support. the violence is a part and is almost a schizophrenia gang culture where you can do all these things and behave like badly. important people of course qualified all. of us both also focus on the last. punishment and infirmed then on my wall all of us from the start. of a broader way enough i figure out i really did a poll down down went up a little bit. of meaning in these music at least if you don't buy the involves it's constantly evolving and.
