i was going to take this insight. that we have it i see links to aussie you have to be pretty special to think it was a secret. well i'll be back with more news at the top of the assay that.

greetings and salutation. guilt hawk watchers can cloud your mind good judgment guilt eats away your insides before you even realize an apology is needed necessary the united states in the last thirty forty years appears to be a country operating on a guilty conscience but is too proud it's too consumed with patriotic blindness to admit their confront that guilty conscience may ninth just a little over a week and a half away the united states congress will decide whether to confirm or reject president trump's nominee for director of the central intelligence agency gina haskell the controversy surrounding her connections to the post nine eleven torture program one of the darkest chapters in recent u.s. history has helped pull back that well maintained veneer of a washington d.c. filled with nothing but good honest patriotic public service and having exposed the

city split into racked over its guilty conscience. some willing to confront the guilt had on while others choose to excuse ignore and even revel in the sins of torture and abuse and write in time for this epic rally play taking place over how schools nomination is ali ahmadi you may remember him arrested after nine eleven here in the united states for alleged ties to al qaeda declared an enemy combatant by then president george w. bush and then held for thirteen straight years inside the u.s. the only he was the only non u.s. citizen detained outside of guantanamo bay eventually in two thousand and nine he pled guilty to conspiring to provide material support to al qaeda this of course is after he spent six years in solitary confinement despite never never actually being

charged with a crime. and now he's adding his voice to the many who claim they were brutally tortured and degraded while in u.s. custody alomari told the guardian quote i do not need apologies i need accountability what they said and did to me was torture. so the question is will the united states face its very guilty conscience or will gina i'm just following orders haskell become the next director of the c i a let's find out and start watching the hawks. forty. three it looks like. it will be. at the bottom if you. like you know that i got. this.

week so. well for one of the watching the hawks i robot and i'm top of the hour and she and i have to just chat i don't know just following orders where have i heard that before where i was and excuse. history but like look i'm just following orders giving you one of those vicious indian burns right now because you know they told me to they told me to you know. it's not my fault i punched you in the face gave in anyway it's a terrible excuse and you know when you look at this. case it's incredible so the u.k. based group cage is supporting him and they have attained and published a dossier containing thirty five thousand documents supporting his allegations that he was tortured on u.s. soil this is on the far away place that receives it this is right here at home in

the united states that changes the game when he was let me give you this long list that i just want to get your initial reaction to this to he was denied from being able to engage in his religion as a muslim with prayer time ritual you know with a ritual cleansing because he couldn't know where. you know which direction is facing he was threatened with violence against him and his family forced to sleep in this freezing so on a bare metal rock that was too small for him deprived of sleep and socialization with other inmates and repeatedly interrogated using a product is known as dry boarding which is the opposite of the waterboarding so much better than what it's like hang you you know like this put dry right whatever in your mouth and duct taping them inside your mouth simulating the fact that you can't breathe yeah it kind of makes it so you can't breathe or swallow or it's actually very dangerous i just i never understand why there is this understanding that it's ok there's this idea that there's this line that well it was for torture

well it was for this it wasn't an excuse when you talk to people whether they were you know blow ranking guards at auschwitz or they were in the inner circle i was just following orders isn't an excuse and on the subject of torture the united states i believe needs to have a very long look at itself but we need to look at that and make amends for it and move in a different direction that's just a fact but i'm not the only person a lot of people in the military say the same thing you talk about people who have been p.o.w.'s have been you know have been through it. right now one hundred retired generals and admirals have written a letter to members of the u.s. senate against house bill being named cia director the letter states quote we devoted our lives to the defense of our country we know that the delegate to our most cherished ideals as a nation is the vision of our security it would send

a terrible signal to confirm as the next director of the cia someone who is so intimately involved in this dark chapter of our nation's history you will see all sorts of deep state types all sorts of intelligence community types come out and say oh no no she's great oh no ignore the omo she. does the rest of her work was good though it was just a bad time for women we also blamed it on her boss oh yes it's always someone else's fault the other one was that c.b.s. news obtained declassified two thousand and eleven. memorandum that's supposed to clear a house full of all her wrongdoing which you know aside from big part of the order was destroying controversial videotapes of showing a detainee is being interrogated. so what's interesting is the memo really lays the blame at her boss and it was i have no fault have with the performance of ms haskell i have concluded that she acted appropriately in her role as mr maher

rodriguez's chief of staff so here's the deal sheen keep saying she did nothing wrong her defenders keep saying she did nothing wrong but they're also saying but but even though she didn't do anything wrong it's this other guy's fault that she did nothing wrong that's the truly saddest part about it you know and when you go back even to what you know and that's what's so interesting that omari excuse kind of came out of this is that when you go back to omari you know and they say oh he pleaded guilty he actually says quote everything in the plea bargain has to do with al qaeda and terrorism hundred percent false it's just out from you know one for you says my battery was up one percent let's let's reverse this trend let's no longer torture let's face this deal that we all feel as part of american society for allowing that to happen let's face it head on and try to change. according to the anxiety and depression society anxiety disorders affect one in eight children while eighty percent of kids with diagnosable anxiety disorder are not receiving

treatment couple that with the fact that since january first of twenty thousand there were over twenty school related shootings in which teenagers were either injured or killed and then park one florida school shooting on february fourteenth at the marjorie stoneman douglas high school that took the lives of fourteen students and three adult members of staff in the after. there were marches and calls from the teen community to do something anything many wonder why these teens were so interested in getting involved now what was the answer was. they were scared in the days following the parklane school shooting pew research conducted a poll of u.s. teens ages thirteen to seventeen and parents with children in the same age range what they found was that of the seven hundred forty three teens polled a full fifty seven percent of them said that they were very or somewhat worried a school shooting could happen at their school which broke down to sixty four percent of girls and fifty one percent of boys now when you break that further down by race pew research found that fifty one percent of white students were very or

somewhat worried while sixty percent of black students and a massive seventy three percent of hispanic students were afraid a school shooting would happen at their school which explains why black teens were the least likely to believe arming teachers would be effective seawall forty four percent of white teens thought arming teachers would work only twenty three percent of black students agreed and one seventy nine percent of black students felt betting assault weapons would be affective only fifty nine percent of white teenagers thought so illuminating not only the differences for support of the second amendment by generation but by race so when it comes to policies that focused on mental health and permitting gun ownership they were almost unequivocal in their support of it showing eighty six percent of respondents believe banning those with mental illness from owning firearms would be very or somewhat effective at preventing school shootings but as many as this fear rational are these teens

being overly emotional and anxious well people are search ask the parents too and what they found out was even more sad and shocking it turns out that while a solid fifty three percent of parents making more than seventy five thousand dollars per year were very or somewhat worried that a shooting could happen at their kids' school a whopping eighty. two percent of families making less than thirty thousand dollars a year were as worried what does that tell us well that i massive section of teens walking into schools these days are living with a debilitating anxiety fear and depression the puts them all at higher risk than their peers to perform poorly in school miss out on important social experiences and engage in substance abuse and what we are doing is very little to mitigate the real fear that they could be shot at school maybe it's time that after years of millennial and teen bashing and blaming it might just be time to actually think of the kids. wallace how could we think of the kids they're just kids they don't know

how to think for themselves i mean we can't even trust them to be able to choose their own political beliefs or have their own feelings and it's all m.t.v.'s fault it's all the guns fault everything else is yes now it's absolutely ridiculous i totally sympathize with these kids and those numbers by i mean you're see that's because they're scared to death and they have a right to be and they're already at a point where teens are already at such a risk you know that they're young if this is you know the days of social media which make bullying so much more efficient to us while we have all of these issues the idea that it wouldn't that this wouldn't all hit them whether even if we have a perfectly mentally whole thing team population these kinds of violent things have an effect but i think what you notice in these numbers is that the other forms of violence that have been the happening in the world are affecting teens of color black and hispanic teens are much more afraid of people in power getting more guns

they're much more afraid of being a victim of it they're likely like you said to have teachers because what do you know people in power ten we've watched it with police violence with everything but they're the ones that end up on the receiving end it's not it's you know it's interesting to you know pharmaceutical companies are doing backflips over these numbers zero to zero to fifty percent of all lifetime cases of mental illness begin at fourteen and now you have the generation of kids developing mental illness at a younger age because of school shootings and because of the society they're going up in. big pharma so this is great news for us certainly you know let's throw some more drugs at these kids rather than actually try to help them cope and for the necessary you know tools they need to get over like this kind of p.t.s.d. you know when we comes to gun violence the one thing we really have to understand is that according to the centers for disease control and prevention you have twenty seven hundred children and teens ages zero to nineteen are shot and killed and over fourteen thousand marshall. injured every year so that's an average of forty seven

american children and teens shot every day either through accidents or bad so we do have to think of the kids that we do all right everybody as we go to break hard watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered a facebook and twitter seo poll shows that are coming up we'll bring you the second half of those delve into the files of the j.f.k. assassination with researchers author jim but the huge ego state to. twenty eighteen coverage we've signed one of the great just kill people. but there was one more question and by the way it's going to be our coach. guys i know you on the list is

a huge star among us and the huge amount of pressure you have to go to the center of the beach to tell we're with you and we will show you all the great game the greatest game you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get going let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join the for the two thousand and ten world cup in russia meet this special one come on. me to just take the radio bianchi team's latest edition to make up as we go. to jersey look. seemed wrong. wrong just don't. let me. get to shape out these days comes out to. engage me equals betrayal.

when something is find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground . with president trump's puzzling yet not entirely shocking decision this week to once again delay the release of a trove of classified files on the j.f.k. assassination many historians and conspiracy theorists alike are left justifiably wondering with fifty five years now gone by what is there to hide what possible information could there be that if we really appreciate it would cause more damage to national security than the unabated speculation that has been allowed to run rampant in the absence of legitimate facts and evidence to discuss all that marshawn stone was joined earlier by historian jim de you genius author of the j.f.k. assassination the evidence today one of the episodes that you describe

a little bit in your book about the chicago assassination attempt is interesting because people do forget that there was this this attempt on the on can these like the few weeks prior to dallas in chicago and the fall guy again was sort of an alleged communist with a marine back i believe or some kind of military background so casual a bit of what that operation looked like and how it was foiled you know i'm i'm i'm really glad you brought that up because that's another thing that the mainstream media never brings up the successful attempt to kill j.f.k. in dallas was preceded by an unsuccessful attempt to kill j.f.k. in chicago and this was i think the first week of november. in which. there was an f.b.i. warning that hoover gave to the secret service that there would be in a champ to kill kennedy in chicago i think that it was november the second and

you're exactly right. the outline of the plot was very similar to what happened in dallas the patsy in chicago was a former marine who had trained with cuban exiles all right the design of the actual sas nation is south of was for the motorcade to go by a warehouse building in chicago. and where this particular patsy was placed on the third floor after it exited from a freeway on ramp the gunmen as far as we know from this were to be they resembled the description was that they were hispanic or cubans so in other words in other words if there would have been no cover up about the chicago plot the attempt to kill kennedy in chicago very likely the dallas plot

would not have been successful because there were so many elements of the chicago plot that resembled the dallas plot ok that the secret service cannot of missed those earmarks all right and they would have either changed their route or pulled oswald off of the route ok before it happened that's a very very important piece of information sean that you just don't hear about in the mainstream press in america and it's really a shame because in addition to telling us how close the design was in chicago it tells us that somebody some force was hunting kennedy in the fall of one thousand nine hundred sixty three and they were determined to get him. and was there the possibility that oswald had informed is f.b.i.

handler about the plot in chicago or who do you think ultimately and that's that's a that's a distinct possibility because in the the best article i've ever read about this many years ago in his seventy's the writer a man named edwin block said that the code name for the informant to the f.b.i. was leak so that leaves the door open that it might have been oswald because we know from all the declassified files we value information that oswald was an f.b.i. informant so that's a very important point i'm with which i'm glad you brought up so let me ask you this question because you have to move vincent bugliosi pretty hard in the book and trying to basically assess and re-evaluate his definitive tome as he's called you know is this reclaiming history is supposed to be the definitive case of the

assassination so you go after the o.c. and it's interesting you find some some things in his own past because but we'll see was renowned as a prosecutor for the manson case right trying that and trying manson but you find in your book that he actually may have protected certain elements and ignored evidence in his prosecution so what if you've got a bit of what you discovered about his his history as a prosecutor well what you're talking about in the so-called manson case which bugliosi called helter skelter in his book. if if people recall bugliosi tried to say in that that book. the idea behind the tate la bianca murders was that he was going to cause that manson was going to cause a race war. throughout the united states right by trying to blame these things on

african-americans the more i looked into that case the more i looked into that case the more i came to the conclusion that bugliosi was either wrong or he was hiding something about that case and i came to the conclusion that number one unlike what bugliosi said in his book that the the assailants never knew the victims i believe that's wrong ok i believe that manson did know. and he i actually j.c. bring and. probably. another person who was living at the house that night. and he might have even been introduced to sharon tate there's some evidence of that. but i believe the reason they knew each other. i put together this.

music because manson was a musician all right he actually had a couple of songs he wrote for the beach boys he actually knew the beach boys alright and also a drug mill you that manson was was dealing drugs ok from various different sources. and that very likely i believe ok was the reasoning behind the actual murders that night all right this is something that bugliosi completely ignored in his book i was kind of shocked when i discovered this but if you look at the los angeles police department reports within like three days of the discovery of the murders they had been working on this drug angle and they had come to the conclusion that this is the most likely motive for the actual homicides but you won't see any of that in helter skelter all right

and so i believe i believe that what bugliosi actually presented in court was a very much censored ok a very much for shortened picture of what actually really happened and i go into that in about the first three chapters of the book you know and i came to the conclusion that bugliosi is reputation which was so much based on that case was very much overrated and very much distorted you know and that's that's how i decided to actually open the book. so ultimately do you think you mentioned earlier about hollywood's portrayal of kennedy obviously post j.f.k. good things like parkland most recently get c.n.n. doing specials all the time on the kennedys you have even the movie bobby which was

you know as the best this film and he said i don't want to be treated the way oliver stone was by alleging that robert kennedy was assassinated misestimated by a conspiracy so do you think that ultimately it's the fact that these people in hollywood and the media are basically being intimidated by something that there is a fear factor that's driving this this interpretation or do you think that they are you know just sold i mean but you mentioned we aussies past and looking at his history as well as the others like hanks and spielberg and others who seem to have bought more into the official line on history what do you think is motivating that idea a league of interpretation i actually believe that ever since at the very least the fiftieth anniversary which would seem to be a kind of orchestrated idea to keep all the critics out of the media ok i think that there's been more or less

a kind of media agreement in the united states that we're going to make it harder than hack for those people to get on ok because we don't want any more this controversy about the g. of k. case and let me give you a specific example of that. a few months ago there was a mock trial in houston and there was a dinner hosted by alec baldwin ok who ever since you know trump benatar news alec baldwin has probably been the hottest actor there is on television right and so he said that at the fiftieth anniversary he had proposed a program on the j.f.k. case right from you know a critical point of view and he had actually pitched it you know to the guys at n.b.c. and so we always alan bottom was also in that show thirty rock ok so he had

a track record as an actor and you know most of you do you now and most people live in l.a. like i do you know that you know it's much easier to get a program approved if you have a big name than if you don't have anything all right it's a kind of law that when what they told him that they had more or less. we have kind of come to a settlement with the official story in the j.f.k. case so we're not going to rock the boat on that. now i don't know how much better reverend is you need than that ok here you have this red hot actor ok comedy this comedy actor ok goes in tries to pitch a show ok and he basically gets the door shut in his face so that's what i think largely has happened. loneliness and isolation can increase the risk of stroke by

thirty two percent hard disease by twenty nine percent a host of other diseases which is why those forced by their health to be isolated need to feel like part of the community that's why the everton football club of liverpool have to fourteen year old jack mclendon become the world's first virtual match mouth stopped jack was unable to attend the game in person due to health issues that keep him in a wheelchair and requires constant oxygen treatment so ever to end the norwegian company no isolation designed is specific. that would allow jack and others like him to be able to feel like they're attending these social occasions through the device says microphone camera and speaker and game day was amazing with the robot meant that jack was able to meet players talk with them take the tunnel in to visit stadium which helped thirty thousand people and even tag along with the coach at the end of the game press conference all from home. that being only legs we had

guy like when technology is used for good like good you know kids first have perspective and they get kids they like that's brilliant all right i hope we made your day because this is our show for you today remember everyone in this world we're told we love this stuff so i tell you all i love you i am sorry grover i'm tired of all those people are watching those hawks another great day at night but. those that put the stimulus in the israelis need. to give up. in the news you know he dreams of getting to be in the us to hear this thing here and eventually with his to find ways of living side by side he says.
