it was engulfed in flames. people burned to death inside for trying to escape jumped from the wind. alo a fire station was less than a mile away it took almost half an hour for firefighters to arrive when they finally did the damage had been done. but here's an intriguing fact just a few days before those dreadful events a messenger from my don on pair o. b. made a visit to odessa it's an interesting coincidence that some of the people he met with in odessa were seen at the scene that fateful day. but not everyone was mourning on the popular political talk show schuster live the news about the people burned alive in odessa was welcomed with a long round. applause for you truth for saudi what this it but lots of your i
5:02 am
don't want to see just put your story you know what you see. on its facebook page the right sector announced the events of may second a proud moment in national history an official investigation into this sad event has been going on now for nearly two years and it's yet to reach a conclusion but it seems the experts and all the information they needed from the very beginning which i. don't need to just give you a cue you can put in there. it looks like a desa really is a very important piece of real estate as it was on earth with a very special new governor appointed on may thirtieth of two thousand and fifteen . mikhail saakashvili an old friend of the united states and born and raised in ukraine's neighboring country georgia hello there in georgia
5:03 am
a quick look at his biography gives one an understanding that he's been groomed for a special mission i mean she did you know as i did when i was i don't know if you got it mr saakashvili received a u.s. state department scholarship and he worked for a new york law firm which represented the organization come on or a group that appeared earlier when we learned about the color revolutions and we're dealing with democratic blood blister aleutian this is the revolution of roses and this is me kyle saakashvili with camara busy overthrowing the legitimately elected president eduard shevardnadze. but i mean that's because you know you. soon after the rose revolution blossom fully georgia announced its intentions to join nato and plant fresh nato military bases in the fertile soil right on russia's border never ever will give our. freedom and independence never never will give any
5:04 am
piece of our territory saakashvili is mission was accomplished at least with his friends and nato the georgian populace wasn't quite as happy though in two thousand and seven they took to the streets to voice discontent and mr saakashvili responded with force. the people's discontent. saakashvili party lost parliamentary elections and the opposition took control he said this means that the parliamentary majority should set up a new government as the president according to our constitution decided not to wait for the results of the president's election and fled the country in october two thousand and thirteen. trade wars don't make any sense because the only way to keep these countries dependent on the dollar is that they have to export to the us in exchange for
5:05 am
dollars because they need dollars to be part of the global economy and so when you go into a trade war and you cut that off you kill you and you put a gun to your head and commit financial suicide by killing the dollar which is what the company ministration seems hell bent on doing an amount. of play for many clubs over the years so i know the game inside. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money rona's and spending to the twenty million. so it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to show what i think what i know about the beautiful guy great so well with. the base.
5:06 am
in two thousand and fourteen saakashvili refused summons to appear in court as a witness in several criminal cases later that same year he was accused of misuse of power and embezzlement. saakashvili wound up in the u.s. and soon his friends in washington found him a new assignment. mikail actively supported my down and very soon was rewarded with a high position in the new ukrainian government. first as the president's counselor and then as the governor of odessa the day before taking this position he renounced his citizenship to georgia the country of the birth and became a ukrainian citizen. in the scene of the last time as gordon would have done in the exhorted road in a civil. war the daddy in the exhorter that rode in. as they say the battle is worth the blood both literally and figuratively yet they could ask us
5:07 am
now do i not somebody afforded us by the us southwest reading up their pick last boss thought. i knew him as someone dear to chester but i have a cut on those could hang up to date on the my seal of geoffrey pyatt the u.s. ambassador to ukraine paid a visit to saakashvili just a month after he took office in odessa it is law and the all last administration is delivering results and you you're going to see a steady flow of embassy and washington visitors coming here the meeting was fruitful and geoffrey generous. no matter how well saakashvili is job goes it looks like he shouldn't be worried about his own finances on his facebook page he posted an official document showing that the new governor of odessa gets a pretty penny from washington almost two hundred thousand dollars a year for comparison the governor of maine gets seventy thousand dollars
5:08 am
a year. so if odessa became a new u.s. state it would be at the top of the list mr saakashvili should feel right at home in his newly adopted country he is best of friends with fellow color revolutionary leader viktor yuschenko who is the godfather of his son. and another mother school bus and a lesson in lucia but insufficient at the post the bully walk us kind of being it's just sad and he sees them with a few more comments going on to. even though there's a double chooses to show. it when used in the but the least of those three is if i did it with you but i just stand on the issue of this boy that business doing this it was good enough that i've this almost a study of the body of this that i see in the in the special bit of bone is that they were able to contain such. a war once launched doesn't choose its victims we are just learning at this hour
5:09 am
that malaysian airlines has now confirmed that it has lost contact with one of its planes plane was indeed shot down by a missile while flying at a high altitude over eastern ukraine near the russian border two hundred ninety eight revised number of souls on board all feared dead it was a murder it was a crime there's been this odd nonchalance about pursuing the answers there was a report a very limited report put out a few months after the event but since then they said the next report will be on the first anniversary of the event but you deal with a criminal investigation before becomes a cold case so there's been this curious element of why is there not greater pressure from both the media and the the western governments to answer these questions but even without any answers the fingers were pointed immediately that's
5:10 am
not an. that is happening because a russian support evidence indicates that the plane was shot down by a surface to air missile that was launched from an area that is controlled by russian backed separatists inside of ukraine he believes little. to put up a national initiative just as it's a question to kate. the malaysian boeing wasn't the first plane to play a significant part in american russian relationships on september first one nine hundred eighty three korean airlines flight double zero seven from new york to seoul via anchorage was shot down by a soviet interceptor aircraft over the territory of the u.s.s.r. in the sea of japan there was absolutely no justification i don't legal or moral for what the soviets did the tragedy of the korean bowing was considered a perfect occasion to demonstrate the nato military power within dangerous proximity to the soviets on november second one thousand nine hundred eighty three
5:11 am
nato launched able archer attend a command post exercise simulating a conflict escalation culminating in a nuclear attack that was followed by placing pershing two nuclear missiles in europe. what reagan didn't take into consideration was the paranoid overreaction of the soviets. and the recently declassified us intelligence report shows that for the first time since the cuban missile crisis the world was that close to nuclear war. just like in one nine hundred eighty three the malaysian boeing crash was leveraged against the enemy. and a new wave of sanctions hit russia mediately after the tragedy. the united states is imposing new sanctions in key sectors of the russian economy almost a year and three months later the dutch safety board published a report that is itself a flight m.h.
5:12 am
seventy crashed because often. i have three well four or i have the today just outside of the airplane avesta list sight of the cockpit the report didn't blame any specific group or person and estimated a very wide area of three hundred twenty kilometers as a zone from which the missiles fired at the same time the russian producer of boog missiles day conducted its own independent investigation. that they speeded me up the fullest. lieu of the delicate guy me get i get the nist is up a school during the experiment they blew up a retired airliner with a boogie missile and came to the conclusion that the malaysian plane was brought down by the older type of missiles not used by russia anymore but still in the possession of ukraine the company claims that the missile was launched from the territory controlled by the ukrainian military and. one would expect that these controversial results would again stir up public interest in the
5:13 am
investigation but the tragedy of malaysian flight m h seventeen at already played its role in the big geopolitical game therefore it was soon forgotten the goal was achieved after the third wave of sanctions hit russia the tensions between the two countries skyrocketed so the question presents itself are we truly witnessing the beginning of cold war two point zero and if so what are our chances to survive at this time. in one thousand nine hundred seven the bulletin of atomic scientists introduce the doomsday clock. it represents a countdown to global nuclear annihilation. in one thousand feet. the
5:14 am
three during the height of the cold war it came its closest to midnight as the superpowers were creating massive nuclear arsenal spent her story of america's ever expanding atomic weapons program as the world began to grasp the insane danger of nuclear warfare and took measures to control the arms race the situation steadily improved. in one thousand nine hundred one the doomsday clock was at its furthest from midnight seventeen minutes. the time of hope was short lived though as the world has become more and more unstable. but in two thousand and fifteen the bulletin of atomic scientists moved the clock to just three minutes to midnight stay on check to climate change in a nuclear arms race resulting from modernization of huge ourselves pose extraordinary and undeniable threats to the continued existence of humanity. the
5:15 am
united states and russia have embarked on massive programs to modernize their nuclear arsenals. undermining the existing nuclear weapons treaties. the clock ticks now at just three minutes to midnight because international leaders are failing to perform their most important duty ensuring and preserving the health and vitality of human civilization.
5:16 am
how do you or do you ought. to let. me know when we were going to need a little. around
5:17 am
a third of.
5:18 am
our going to. back your survival guide books take your call to start getting back to the catalog the first. because there you go to the back to back to. zero zero zero zero zero this is a repatriation scheme could look at the after seven years. to build a separate geyser for. the united states has always had a tool to use in its tax on other countries. economic sanctions or are often just the beginning another thing you like to do is
5:19 am
place some military pressure on the countries a talking about. and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country. we have a responsibility for the head. and we need to make rules for the rest. because without us there will be chaos.
5:20 am
the u.s. is hit by two high school shootings in a day with ten killed by a student in texas and another person dead in georgia a. russian former spy a surrogate screwball is released from hospital in the u.k. ten weeks after he was poisoned by a nerve agent there his whereabouts haven't been revealed. and investigators in cuba start analyzing a flight recorder from a passenger plane that crashed could be able to take off in havana killing more than one hundred people. the latest on these stories head to our team at the top of the warri sushi will be here with the latest news there stay with us for the
5:21 am
financial news because of a. stranger this is the kaiser report i used to be a rocket then i became a journalist. stacey. is that what you call i have great legs as a journalist we have some interesting stories here to cover and these are financial chaos happening in the world and you know you always say that you can't taper a ponzi and the federal reserve has tried to taper a ponzi there are unwinding their quantitative easing and interest rates are rising so far people have said well we haven't seen any sort of reaction nothing's happening so far that's bad in the us stock markets continue to be you know near all time highs and the property markets are booming they're rising at like five six
5:22 am
seven percent a year so where is the where is the chaos that was going to follow tapering the ponzi and of course as we keep on pointing out we're in a globalized financial system operating on the u.s. dollar standard and when we raise interest rates here that means the dollar increases in value and lo and behold we've had some emerging market currency chaos so i want to look at what's been happening in argentina argentine central bank reserves down one billion dollars today fifty three point forty one billion according to bloomberg trying to manage the collapse of the currency which is remarkably happening out of the blue i think it's as investors have realized that the fed is trying to taper the ponzi they thought. they were going to taper the ponzi and they have and now investors are fleeing the argentine currency mexico turkey brazil russia they're leaving emerging market currencies suddenly and
5:23 am
fleeing into the dollar act of raising interest rates after you've lowered the for so long through quantitative easing doing the opposite or quantitative tightening imagine swallowing a porcupine and then trying to pull it back up. so all those quills are facing one way on the way down and he pull that back out you regurgitate that porcupine and those quills. get stuck in your esophagus and they cost tremendous you something kate and die. not even david blaine could recur to date a porcupine he just regurgitate little frogs you probably just challenge him to try david blaine i challenge you to swallow in regurgitate a porcupine. two thousand bitcoin that you cannot do this. well a full grown porcupine well of course because it is doing quite well in argentina
5:24 am
but i'll show you the chart it's a remarkable start again you know i b c newsnight thinks currency collapses in certain countries are funny but i don't think this is funny there's an inflation rate of over twenty five percent in argentina and it's obviously a crisis for the population at least they're always well protected against this bottom ninety nine point five percent are not protected from this and the currencies collapse in argentine peso in free fall a central bank changes strategy central banks said to accept currency at low of twenty five per dollar fair value according to the i.m.f. i.m.f. says board to me on friday to discuss argentina and there's a chart just from this year of the argentine peso just to review because you're am something incredibly important here the the ponzi and the taper of the scheme that is the pyramid that is the dollar is being quantitatively tightened causing dollar interest rates to go up and this is having a reaction in argentina most spectacularly but also in the entire emerging market
5:25 am
economy they are now suffering catastrophe and so a either the central banks get together and drop interest rates once again or be as you've noted argentina is a place of adoption for a bit coin as are all these countries that are suffering from this as well and then as well and the u.s. dollar had gemini so not only is china iran and germany exiting the u.s. dollar by creating a competitor swift but then you have argentina venezuela and some of these other countries probably turkey soon running to bitcoin. so you have got and then russia's running to gold so you've got bitcoin and gold are becoming the go to assets while the us dollar hits the buffers and simply cannot support this ponzi scheme any longer on the individual level it makes sense to perhaps hold some big queen because there are a geo political insanity it's only going to get worse because it always happens
5:26 am
throughout history whenever any empire collapses look at. europe from pre-war the war on through world war two that was essentially a part of it was due to the british empire collapsing and the chaos that ensued from that when the you know the austrian empire collapsed the same thing like chaos across europe so i think at this sort of point in time. when these currencies are falling like this you have to have some sort of protection where there's gold silver a big point mexico's currency is falling. russia's currency continues to fall but you know at least they're earning huge amounts of dollars in argentina by the way i want to point out they're blowing through remarkable amounts of u.s. dollars therefore exchange reserves in order to prop up to keep the peso from falling too far and that only exist. you know those u.s. reserves exist there because of a christina discouraged who is the predecessor to machree she was very. you know
5:27 am
nationalistic in terms of not wanting to be part of the i.m.f. globalized system for fear of what happened previously with the debt chaos and the collapse and the economic chaos that happened in argentina so she built up these massive reserves there so he's blowing them on trying to prop up a currency which is again throughout history currencies anyway go to zero so he's trying to stop the end evitable he should just like keep that hard cash. dollars and let the currency fall as a follow up they're going one of the greatest attributes is that of censorship resistant you know we travel all over the world and we travel here in the united states and people come up to us all the time and say thank you for telling me to buy a big coin a three dollars i'm now a multi bitcoin millionaire but not as many americans because of course our t. has been censored in america in the u.k.
5:28 am
so the millions of people who could have been big claim millionaires right now are going to be watching on the sidelines as big going goes two hundred thousand dollars so here's another headline about what's happening in argentina as u.s. dollar and interest rates rise all heck breaks loose in emerging market currencies when the hot money gets antsy a currency crisis morphs into a debt crisis so that's important currency crises often morph into debt crises if you have debts denominated in foreign. currencies so argentina has a lot of debts in u.s. dollars it's hard for them to earn u.s. dollars like say russia can or brazil because they have a lot of natural resources that are priced in dollars and you know when the ruble falls it's actually. all that they sell is rising in ruble prices so they're earning more income mexico they're kind of out of oil at this point they've counter-rally as like alone so that their income in dollars is not as high so. the point that he's making here however is that it was only in january that argentina
5:29 am
managed to sell billions in. one hundred year bonds so investors were knocking down the gates to get in on this hundred year by knowing wall street is like goldfish eat until they die right say show me something to trade in the trade but you know dr paul craig roberts has made a point often quite germane to this discussion and that. trumps trade wars don't make any sense because the only way to keep these countries dependent on the dollar is that they have to export to the us in exchange for dollars because they need dollars to be part of the global economy and so when you go into a trade war and you cut that off you're killing you you put a gun to your head and commit financial suicide by killing the dollar which is what the trump administration seems hell bent on doing at the moment well certainly this global financial system whether it's domestically or internationally does not seem set out for the ordinary person the bottom ninety nine point nine percent that are
5:30 am
not friends with the central bankers when this in the united states where all the jobs happen in either new york city or san francisco but the barrier to entry is you need tens of thousands of dollars to move there and even get on the rental ladder and rents keep on rising rapidly this is part of the central bank printing money over and over but where cash is needed most where credit and money is needed most the bankers don't want to lend to them because there was a higher risk when there's easy money just speculating in new york city real estate for example so who's going to give money to somewhere in kansas nobody cares about kansas nobody cares about the middle of nowhere argento nothing goes warren buffett is that banks will famously lend you money to buy umbrella's when it's sunny outside but once it's raining you'll never be able to borrow to buy an umbrella i paraphrased but something along the sunny economically in new york or manhattan in this sort of ponzi based system so i want to look at in europe where we have another similar financial currency based crisis.
