1:07 am
can use i mean. you know very has a searing rescue operation and it transpired that many of those trapped in the collapsed building were children local medics say the strike struck a home and a shop a yemeni journalist hussain describes the rescue efforts. what you have seen in the video that has been going around in some media for children under the rubble after the soviet coalition fighter jet but event it is cured to come and we have seen in some of this video again which was crying and she was asking for some water they said no we will give you a little bit of water you are still injured we need to check you said no i am not injured i am not injured and you can see in the footage that she was really really badly injured by this so-called saudi. well we've lost the saudi led islamic military counterterrorism alliance to comment on riyadh's alleged role in
1:08 am
the strike of so far no response how the saudi led operation in yemen is aimed at who the opposition fighters who control widescale territories in the north are human rights groups continue to call for riyadh to stop its role in the conflict and saudi arabia has repeatedly insisted it doesn't target civilians but fights only terrorists hussein again claims the ball means used in the latest strike came from professional partners in the west those bombs little brought to me by children in that area just imagine i mean this young who but i think a lot of just what i'll do to home in that village is i mean i want to ask you is on both of the few they live nation always supplying this bomb to the saudis the coalition the only country that actually is using this bombs on yemen the only company that i mean i have a little crazy in yemen the only fight that if you own the sky in yemen they are so do you fight that you get that out of fuel but you as. the only thing that they
1:09 am
like is they've skated on both is what type of missile that the yemenis over the whole of you have. taken on the opioid epidemic has become one of the top priorities of the current us administration as overdose deaths have seen shopping crease in recent years part of the plan is to cut back on opioid prescriptions. american looks at how these have contributed to the crisis. a crisis in the us has reached the point where the drug enforcement administration itself says it should be doing a better job the united states continues to be affected by a national opioid epidemic which has been spurred in part by the rise of opioid prescribing and misuse the da can and must do better let's quickly break it down in a span of seventeen years two hundred thousand people have died as a result of overdose deaths involving opioids increase for times from ninety nine
1:10 am
to twenty sixteen and every day more than fix hundred fifty thousand opioid prescriptions are issued in the us. and the da blames doctors indiscriminate to prescribing can endanger patients' lives doctors take an oath to do no harm and provide the best care for their patients first do no harm this is the basic principle to practice medicine. but is it fair to pin the blame on doctors when it's the d n a itself that registers individuals and companies to sell controlled substances and guess what their funding is depended on the da must set phase at a level that ensures the recovery of the full costs of operating the various aspects of the diversion control program. in two thousand and seventeen the da claimed that it issued one point seven million licenses around five hundred thousand more since two thousand and eight a pharmacist who prescribe drugs to almost all of his clients is now serving jail
1:11 am
time for ground zero as west virginia where doctors write hundred and thirty eight prescriptions for every one hundred people did you write three hundred twenty five prescriptions the first week of january for more than nineteen thousand oxy code on pills. possibly you don't know how many prescriptions you wrote i don't i don't and they may well be. it's not just criminal physicians or what we call pill mill doctors willfully exchanging prescriptions for cash even well intentioned compassionate physicians have gotten caught up in the problem of overprescribing i think the da does bear responsibility primarily in that their job was really to police whether or not opioids were being indiscriminately prescribed dispensed and even transported to these very small towns and they didn't do their job in that regard he's still behind bars but his
1:12 am
license was never revoked it just expired well indeed a report showed that criminals are often allowed to continue practicing medicine even after doing their time in one instance a doctor who was selling prescriptions for controlled substances to undercover police was sentenced to five years supervised probation but never lost his license if that's not shady enough the agency issued licenses to individuals that have a history of drug abuse and trafficking here's one example a doctor was granted a medical license after two drug related arrests the first time he was arrested for cocaine distribution and the second for coping use only to be issued a license eight years later. why is it that licenses are rarely revoked while the acting head of the d.a. believes the system is to blame we have done a lot of civil fines but when you look at major businesses civil fines seem to have little impact and i think that's part of the frustration i think the key to it is
1:13 am
as we're states either don't have the ability to connect with each other or the system that actually aren't being used as is highly problematic and the way the system works means we're only seeing the tiniest fraction of licenses the both for talking with your zero point zero one four percent out of one point seven million licenses so one of the. the things that we are now recommending is that before the v.a. grant a license to a physician there should be required education that that physician should have in order to get the da license in the first place what would be much more important is training physicians in how to safely prescribe opioids in the first place and once they have prescribed opioids how to monitor patients so that they can see whether or not that patient is becoming addicted misusing the opioid or diverting it to other sources. thousands of kittens are being killed off to being used
1:14 am
in experiments on food borne illnesses as scientists use them to investigate such diseases as a talk so most of us after the experiments even healthy kittens were allegedly euthanized adjusting goodman the vice president of the white coat waste project claims this has been going on for decades the u.s.d.a. the agriculture department has been breeding hundreds of cats feeding them inspected wrong meat and then slaughtering all of these kittens before they are three months old at great expense to taxpayers and basically in secret with no oversight from thomas or the public and has been doing it for nearly fifty years the state year over one hundred kids a year comes directly from the approved application for the very project that we're criticizing it says and there are numerous times that they plan to use one hundred kittens each year and that this number is based on the number of kids they've used
1:15 am
in previous years so it's not only that they're killing up to one hundred kids now it's that they've been doing it for decades and they've missed out of their documents. this all came out of the u.s. department of agriculture came under fire and says it didn't consider the option of adoption as the animals could have posed a threat to people by spreading the disease. however the world health organization explained that cats are not the main way the studied diseases are spread not just in goodman again says the kittens posed no danger. it is absolutely false and untrue what the u.s.d.a. is saying about these cats possibly posing a risk to people the u.s. centers for disease control one of our top health agencies the americans at merion medical association and the association for every medical colleges as well as lots of other authorities also say that cats who have this parasite are perfectly safe to have in your house the government agency say that these cats are healthy and to be people's pets they could be adopted out but instead the u.s.
1:16 am
department of agriculture is killing one hundred kids a year for no reason why we're back with more very soon. donald trump claims he's the master of the deal but when it comes to iran it is the art of no deal trump claims he has made america safer a dubious claim closer to the truth is probably attempted force regime change in
1:17 am

good of you to join us today the u.s. democrats are losing support ahead of november elections for congress that's according to a recent poll. looks at how the makeup of ministration is playing a big role. watchdogs of american politics of observed that the democrats are losing their supposed upper hand when it comes to the upcoming congressional midterm elections now there are many different factors that play into this but one that stands out is that trump has doubled down on good old fashioned american warmongering he's appointed notorious war hawks pompei oh and bolton has ripped up the iran deal and he's even unleashed a torrent of missiles against the syrian arab republic more recently he's appointed gina has
1:19 am
a bloody gina to be the head of the cia she was allegedly involved in the agency's torture program of the past now we get a lot of democrats speaking up against a hassle but as long as she gets two of them to go along in her favor she's clear to be confirmed already we've got joe manchin from west virginia democratic senator speaking in her favor. i have found gina hospital to be a person of great character she has worked in some of the most dangerous corners of the world and i have the utmost respect for the second. i says she is made for our country i look forward to working with gene hospital now joe manchin is from west virginia that's a state full of conservative minded appellations while opposing war and torture might when the democrats friends up in new england in red states among conservative minded americans these hardline pentagon policies are crowd pleasers not scandals now remember the resistance the folks protesting donald trump at every turn and taking the leadership from hillary clinton well those folks agree with donald trump
1:20 am
on very few things but among them is bombing syria i really believe that we should have and still should. take out his airfields and prevent him from being able to use them to innocent people and proxy sharing gas on them even c.n.n. the network donald trump is accused of fake news is with him when he's on the warpath remember when missiles were flying into syria voices that usually oppose donald trump simply odd donald trump ordered a missile strike against the assad regime in syria i support president trumps use of american military power this week they even talked up the military equipment we are refueling the saudi bombers that are dropping the bombs it is said that thousands of civilians have died in yemen because of this you know there's a lot of jobs at stake certainly if a lot of these defense contractors stop selling warplanes other sophisticated equipment to saudi arabia they're going to there's going to be
1:21 am
a significant loss of jobs or revenue here in the united states when the media and politicians are telling americans that war is good for business don't be too surprised if you see us public support for war let's recall how the media pushed the americans to support the invasion of iraq and most of them went along with it we expect every american to support our military and if they can't do that to shut up our duty as loyal americans to shut off once the fighting begins trump campaign with the antiwar talking. points but the polls show that his hawkish turn hasn't really hurt him among the public there seems to be a lot of americans who are tired of war but there's a pretty solid core of folks who believe the cruise missiles keep them safe and that america first should refer to military strength and our t. new york. i don't know trying to become the new cia director hospital that was grilled at a senate confirmation hearing the session was interrupted by protesters denouncing the nominee.

tell the viewers about the electoral campaign in chronological order so that you won't start with the scandal affecting the ruling party when you are asked to present certain information exactly how it's been presented to you later that this is always one sided and that you have no chance to give the broader context to. actually expires journalists will present their case to the european parliament the spanish government control session on wednesday and the spanish journalist on politician. i gave them house the port deal i mean i don't think my boss instructed me to prepare material about the speech of minister jorge fernandez d.s. i told him that without their original audio i would not accept the assignment after ten minutes i was removed and he gave this task to another journalist and here is another example they put the story on my colleagues table which without any verification accused juan carlos mona darrow of tax evasion haven't checked
