2:01 am
that you know like genetic blindness let's really get in there is that money could be made. and it's gross but i want to say this about cory doctorow he made a very interesting point saying markets will not on their own fun profoundly effective cures for diseases that the story lives and families this is a very strong argument for heavily taxing the profits of pharma companies investors and other one percenters and then turning the money over to publicly funded scientific research that assumes all patents i like where that's go a good set up the good stuff there. it is it's cost effective you should be. right as we go to the word as we corporate court watchers were good to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered facebook and twitter still poll shows that are t.v. dot com coming up shawn stole the soldier this is richard james the eugene o'neill to discover what to do great. any company is still in the. process of just kind of

2:04 am
thank you thank. god oh. god. even in this day and age of hardly believe all political thrillers playing out in real life layers upon layers of fact checkers debunking each other and eternal storm of fake news conspiracy theories it's hard to imagine anyone except on explained history staying in the public's interest and imagination for a very long time and yet one has lived on through decades of attempted to funking and thorough investigations and that's the assassination of president john f. kennedy to try and get some more light on this perplexing chapter in american history some stone was joined last week by historian and author james do you genial
2:05 am
. jim thank you so much for joining me today i really want to discuss this new book of yours the j.f.k. assassination and i have to ask you i mean you've written it seems like about almost half a dozen books now on the kennedy assassination over the many years and i want to know why do you keep coming back to it what is it that you're trying to express with this new new book well with this particular book which is called the j.f.k. assassination the evidence. this was designed. to kind of counter what i took to be the new hollywood spin on the kennedy case you know which you know represented by things like. what happened at the fiftieth anniversary the two thousand and thirteen all those terrible media shows. the movie. parkland you know and
2:06 am
so what i wanted to do was to look at the evidence in the j.f.k. case in the lights the declassification process by the j.f.k. act and the nation's record review board to show that this new spin that television movies are trying to put on mckays is completely out of you know not not supportable by the faction fact i would say if you read the book you'll see that the original warren commission verdict on oswald is even less supportable today with this new evidence than it was back in one nine hundred sixty four when the warren commission report was was first issued so that's what i was trying that's why the subtitle is called you know the evidence today. in terms of the going back to the twenty thirteen time period i think even going back
2:07 am
ten years or so there was a british computer model that was put up basically saying this is definitive proof we've done a simulation and we've proven that it was oswald killed kennedy because of this computer sim and it's just that it's insane how every few years it comes up that they try to use these type of sittings whether it's a simulation or you know bugliosi is book reclaiming history as the definitive told him to say look this seals the case and yet as you say it hasn't and it have we learned anything new from the twenty seventeen disclosures these new files or the vaults last year. yeah there's well see the problem is as i'm trying to address in this book is that there's a lot of really new and interesting stuff that is being released is just that the media. really doesn't want to tell you about this or new and interesting stuff for instance the stuff about oswald allegedly being in mexico city
2:08 am
is i think some of the most interesting material you know that has been declassified and very briefly. is let me say that the cia said that oswald went to the cuban consulate and the russian consulate for a total of five times yet even though the cia had something like three cameras on each place they've never been able to produce a photograph of oswald going in or going out even though they had ten opportunities but today beyond now we know for example that the cia had to informants inside the cuban consulate they asked the informants more than once did you see oswald show in the picture the jews see this guy inside the cuban consulate and all every single time they asked either one of them for a total of four times they said no we never saw this guy inside the cuban consulate
2:09 am
so this makes it very very interesting as to why the cia had the ones that oswald was there even though there is no evidence that he was and by the way i'm sure somebody like you knows that the audio tapes that the cia sent up to washington which are supposed to recorded oswald's voice in mexico city the f.b.i. agent said well we just talked to this guy this is not oswald on these tapes. you know so this is you know and by the end if you take about six months ago if you recall when trump was supposed to release these new documents in october almost every program that was on the air and there was literally a dozen of them ok said they all assume that oswald was in mexico city because the
2:10 am
cia said he was you know when in fact the declassified evidence leaves that question wide open was here was any so that's just one of the things that i think is so and there's another one that i you probably aren't aware of because nobody talked about it the f.b.i. had a report that out about ten days before the assassination jack ruby was an electronics store looking for some amplification equipment for his clubs all right and oswald was with them in the store ok and so ruby asked the guy's name he turned to oz wald and said take his name down he's going to get a free pass for the club ok so that's this is the kind of stuff that's coming out which you know the mainstream media in this country doesn't really want the public to know very much about you know so there's people like you you know that we try
2:11 am
and get this information out. and where are we in terms of the actual declassification process so trump had some issues that he basically was being stymied on by the cia and other parties to basically continue or view before disclosure so what files are still do we know the files that we know about obvious because there's plenty of share files that were destroyed buried we'll never hear about the the was that we know or a way to be disclosed what are we looking at as far as f.b.i. cia files i'll say that i'm really glad you asked that question because next week is supposed to be the last day he gave them an extension of six months until april twenty sixth all right now it's very very difficult to get a finite number as to how many the files have been released how many have been released and what we call redacted form that is blacked out areas ok but the best sources i've been able to get is that there is something like about three thousand
2:12 am
pages that have not been released in any form at all and there's about twenty eight thousand pages that have only been released in redacted form so next week april twenty sixth to be exact ok there should be a lot of new information coming out of the national archives ok if if and he did it once ok if there's no delay and remembered the president is the only person who can delay this process any further because by law these should have been released last fall he gave them an extension which he's allowed to do all right so i hope i really really hope that the press and the public will hold trump's feet to the fire and let him come through with that promise and he said in october let's declassify everything i mean i think sean fifty. five years is enough of
2:13 am
secrecy on the j.f.k. case i mean if oswald did what are you still trying to hide. well that does beg the question in general what are they trying to hide i mean let's go to your thesis and to what year in terms of your research and your analysis of the situation the elements that killed kennedy who were they and why is it so important as you mentioned fifty five years later to still allow this level of hatchet jobs and media censorship on the subjects to be in place if you know the people that killed them presumably are dead why does it matter well i think and you know i think most people who study this case will agree is that the kennedy assassination. was literally an overthrow the government in order to stop kennedy from changing the direction of american foreign policy in many many
2:14 am
different areas you know not just not not just towards the soviets not just in vietnam not just in cuba but different areas of the world that very few people know about because they really weren't studied all right so i think that's the reason i think that as far as the what happened in j.f.k. in dealey plaza i agree the lot of other people that it was very likely a combination of the cia cuban exiles and and the elements of the underworld organized crime. because all you have to do is look at oswald number one who has sen richard as has all the fingerprints of intelligence about him and you take a look at jack ruby who had several connections to organized crime and
2:15 am
just from the combination of those two characters ok you come up with and by the way let me add this very few people know this but even the warren commission considered that possibility. two lawyers for the warren commission griffin and leon hubert said there's ample evidence that jack ruby was involved in arms smuggling and arms dealing ok towards cuba and there's a distinct possibility. ruby might have had an indirect connection to oswald in the area because of course i will be doing all those funny things in new orleans you know with cuban organizations so that is where i think that that is what i think happened to kennedy you got caught up in that where for the reasons. the objective was to drastically alter his direction of american foreign policy.

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 and it's been a struggle. running into this man from 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 some 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 perth to have someone monitoring the site otherwise it'll be a free for all the news there a better alternative to end the homelessness crisis. they claim is a black hole and it is sucking folks from all walks of life and money from all points on the globe and as it expands it just the wharfs the size of anything
2:19 am
else i could keep with it that. it's very funny regimes but also very high level bankers and economists so christine legarde is just the latest to get liz to be calling black all. this time is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of suze a member of the commission to look you know this this is my complicity is going to sunday all maybe you know john i just hope. the only palestinians who gets the most hopeful is jerusalem counterparts i do things is a lot of those who in the world and those over vision didn't know when we could do this. and the earth is all of us not just the heart of this lady of the muscle that you have and i'm going to continue muslims you know do more in the middle don't put

this off. saudi arabia's top diplomat warns could tar is that it's a government faces collapse unless it starts of backing u.s. operations in syria. french leader manual maneuvers between pleasing europe and donald trump on the iran deal during his address to the u.s. congress. this agreement. may know the address all concerns but we should not abandon its without having some see substantial and more of that kind out for extremists an alleged bodyguard of osama
2:21 am
bin laden is found to have been collecting benefits in germany for over two decades . and russia's defense ministry displays fragments of missiles it says the syrian government intercepted during the recent western strikes the us claimed all of its missiles hit their targets. are broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is our national i'm sean thomas certainly glad to have you with us now saudi arabia's foreign minister has warned the qatari government that it could collapse if it does not start lending support to the u.s. military in syria. should finance the u.s. military presence in syria and send its own military forces before the us president american protection for. if the us is to withdraw its protection represented by its
2:22 am
military base in then the regime then within less than a week this comes as we've heard different words from trump basically giving the impression he's still making up his mind about whether or not to withdraw u.s. forces from syria he's been talking about it for him in terms of very soon relatively soon it's not exactly clear now we did hear trump say that if saudi arabia wants the usa to maintain a military presence in syria they should help pay for it they will be making a decision very quickly into ward nation with others in the area as to what we'll do saudi arabia. is very interested no decision and i said well who do you want to say maybe you can have to pay so now we hear the foreign minister of saudi arabia saying that there are regional rival are must share the burden of the fighting in syria or else there could be some rather harsh consequences it's interesting to note yesterday tuesday donald trump was at the white house this
2:23 am
being with the french president mccraw on and he seemed to indicate that there were other countries that had been approached by the united states about increasing their role in syria financially as well as merit militarily there is talk of the prospects of an arab coalition in the works for syria now this is certainly not the first point of disagreement between qatar and saudi arabia folks will recall over a year ago there was a falling out between the two countries and that resulted in a number of countries cutting off diplomatic relations with qatar saudi arabia and during that spat we heard that donald trump unprecedentedly accusing qatar of funding terrorism. said that they absolutely are not funding terrorism in that statement from trump was simply inaccurate so now we've heard these very very dramatic words from saudi arabia's foreign minister who are waiting to see what comes next. security analyst and former british army officer charles schumer bridge told r.t.
2:24 am
that any gulf states sending troops into syria would be breaking the law while a lot depends on the difference of course between what is being stated quite grandly by various politicians and leaders and what actually may actually turn out to happen on the ground let's not forget that this would be an occupation force because syria of course is a sovereign entity certainly the recognized government of syria has not invited these other countries from the g.c.c. the gulf cooperation council states to come and join in any action or any military operations inside syria itself let's not forget sad president assad and his forces are winning the war in syria and almost certainly at some stage those that then replace american troops may well end up in combat against syrian forces and possibly also russian forces and those countries will be keen to avoid that i suspect. the french president has concluded
2:25 am
a three day trip to washington by addressing the u.s. congress where he got a warm welcome from lawmakers. best first thing. the president of the french republic. spoken to z.f. sickly of the special bond between the two countries in a lengthy speech full of historical reference. friends are supposed to play to the story of this great nation from the very beginning. that for a moment transport ourselves to the past french philosopher evolve. and benjamin franklin george washington for america and france that's a good song of the united states. the income cmon devote one more time to keep them there was a revolt from thomas jefferson who was not
2:26 am
a. normal decent very patient relationship this is. well along with all those historical references there was some policy discussed most importantly the iran deal now the media has portrayed a trump and mccraw relationship as a bromance so to speak comparing it to the infamous bush blair bromance of the early two thousand but that could definitely be a mischaracterization considering that mccrone took some positions that were totally out of line with trost policies including expressing support for the paris climate agreement using the phrase make the planet great again which is in stark contrast to make america great again slogan now mccraw was a bit more ambiguous regarding the j.c. p.o. way or the iran deal calling for a more comprehensive deal while reiterating that france would not be abandoning the twenty fifteen agreement he presented for a number of months i've been saying that it was not sufficient do but it will enable us at least until twenty twenty five it's going to be to have some control
2:27 am
over the nuclear activities here. we therefore wish to work on a new deal with iran. we signed it at the initiative of the united states. we signed it and boasts the united states and france that is why we cannot say we should get rid of it like that france will not leave the g.c. purely because we signed. mccraw as explanation today seem to be a reaction to backlash from the e.u. and again mccrone did clarify that the necessity of the agreement outweighs washington's concerns and he urged other signatories to stick with the deal until there's a better one but more crowded trump reaching consensus came as somewhat of a surprise to the other signatories especially considering that five hundred french british and german m.p.'s wrote a letter to the u.s. congress asking them to support the deal saying that the concerns should be
2:28 am
addressed separately and not within the context of the j.c. p.o. way which evidently is in direct conflict with the crown and trump sphere so the check out what the e.u. and russia had to say about it and what can happen in the future will seen the future but there is one deal existing it's working it needs to be preserved we are against the revision of these agreements and believe it's very counterproductive to de rail the longstanding international efforts. we'll make sure that these agreements and shrines in the u.n. security council resolution weren't be violated trump has until may twelfth to decide what he's going to do but now that there seems to be some division among the members of the e.u. it's impossible to predict what exactly will happen. well france's president also visited george washington university on wednesday where he held a speaking engagement with students while there he answered questions on the iran deal stating he believes trump is likely to exit the contact stressed the need to work on
2:29 am
a new and broader nuclear agreement regardless of trump's decision to run based political analyst. told us that although france and america might be aligning on the iran deal the rest of europe does not want to go along. trio nations in europe especially friends even more than germany and britain is trying to get closer to donald trump's aspirations and demands especially with regard to iran is no theory issue but there were a slew of europe is a standing against any intensification of problems and tensions with iran they just reject the demand by. european nations. to impose the in further sanctions on iran for its missile. so this shows that europe is not much willing to you know work with donald trump.
2:30 am
all right during the same event said france would increase its support for the coalition in syria and reinforce the u.s. military presence in the north of the country he also stated that he is unsatisfied with the peace process since he believes it has produced few results went on to express hope that efforts by smaller groups of nations would serve as a bridge between the geneva. negotiations. as the syrian military works to secure complete control of the battle scarred city of duma kilometers of rubble built tunnels have been discovered our team has exclusive images of the vast subterranean network that helped to sustain the islamist insurgents.
