stance somalia and yemen the drone strikes have resulted in numerous civilian casualties in every country involved with up to two hundred civilians dying in yemen alone. the tax was. i for. the. foreign policy analyst jonathan shafi things people in asia should be worried about this development. billions in the area of go out not just every day but we should be concerned about the damage that these drones can do and we've seen on numerous occasions hundreds actually over the years civilians have been killed and of course
3:31 am
the reaction from the local population is what you would expect one of anger and one that wants to see these drones and the country but the u.s. claims it's going to bring the region closer to paste you see any any sort of a liberty within that plane. i think the problem with that is of course that's always the claim that was a claim of afghanistan of which there still are not. the claim you can even go all the way back to vietnam of course this is always the public relations clean the reality of course is that the united states is looking to secure a puppet in the regions to secure its own interest in the region and indeed to expand its power across the region and therefore public safety the safety of civilians bringing about peace we're all actually subordinates those interests the deployment of drones by the united states not just here but across the region and not just on under donald trump but under obama as whale often doesn't come to publicly for many months after the operation start if they do
3:32 am
a toll and that's because the nature of this kind of warfare is to be there as far as it possibly can they don't want in the headlines domestically. it's been revealed u.s. authorities have been secretly tracking ordinary american travelers under a surveillance program called quiet skies the move targets people who haven't been investigated by any u.s. agency but still might pose a risk suspicious behavior like a strong body odor in regular sleeping patterns and changing hostile clothes could flag up someone for surveillance and this prompts a small group of armed undercover air marshals to follow them on board the unit then compiles individual reports which are sent back to the transportation security administration after the story broke the agency issued a statement claiming it's standard procedure. for more shoes may deploy on
3:33 am
flights in furtherance of the t.s.a. mission to ensure the safety and security of passengers crew members and aircraft throughout the aviation sector we gained reaction from investigative reporter dave lindorff and political commentator steve malzberg who didn't exactly see eye eye to . if i now know there are air marshals who are armed on my flights most of my flights i don't care who they're watching as long as they're there so i don't have a problem with this you know this is very akin to when they first started doing the no fly list which i wrote about for salon magazine what we found out were there actually were two lists there was the people that they knew were. dangerous terrorists but they didn't have the goods on them and they didn't let them fly and then there was a huge list which was people they harassed because of their politics and they were there were problems with the notify list and people who didn't belong there were on there but look we had it sure that we didn't have any more nine eleventh's and
3:34 am
guess what are more shoe bombers and guess what we have been they have kept us safe and that's the main thing that's the main concern of people traveling on an airplane is that they're kept safe and if the t.s.a. has determined that yes surely it is a good honor student for that to their advantage saying that i'm glad all patterns and maybe changing it and maybe changing hair color which could be suspicious and it's not only have color and body odor those are two to promote examples but you know what let's take a poll of the american people and overwhelmingly they'll say do what it takes to keep us safe these things get out of hand if people don't get to know that they're on a list and get to challenge the list and that was the problem with the no fly list that's the problem with this list that nobody you know i hear out of ten maybe your house and then they say why isn't it we know maybe they're watching you know maybe they're watching probably yaml they weren't going after the people that were the real problems and risks and look i got a i got a beard i look like maybe you know some shit heidi if the air marshal is spending
3:35 am
his time looking at me all the through the flight because my beard you know he's probably missing the guy who has a plastic gun and slipped through the the. metal detector the proof is in the putting we have not thank god we have not had this cut any kind of nine eleven follow up if you're on that list. if you're on that list of people for the federal marshals to what they are marshals to watch and that list goes to law enforcement in the united states it's going to stay there and it's going to impact your life in some way because you're not going to know it's there and they're going to watch you in different ways it may affect your employment your promotion could affect all kinds of things you should have a right to know once they decide that you're not a suspicious person supposedly after ninety days that you're on that list and that gets wiped there's nobody saying that happens this is an out of control problem
3:36 am
already and it's going to get worse to say it's out of control to say that we've missed to say that we've missed people because at the because we're watching this one we missed that one there are no new point to the shoe bomber i was a long time ago they say people are going to get promotions people are going to get in and get jobs there's no evidence of this this is massive state this is not mass it's hysteria and everyone getting to fly a lot of privilege if you don't want to have every car you don't want to get on a list don't fly don't fly. in syria many locals are being allowed to leave the northwestern province of italy befire russian sponsored humanitarian corridor the exodus follows the decision to allow militants and rebels to settle that i think is into their last bastion in the country. but.
3:37 am
the minute. they demanded six million leave it was the to call the two sons when we reached the checkpoint they threatened us and you have to turn back now we're going home we have from up wild who. are. she was. the device helps to detect explosives and weapons we press the button and scan the object it has a special indicator this call is one hundred percent clean but we've seen calls with weaponry be full.
3:38 am

3:39 am
security has gone by i think the reason there is nothing churchill because of that i i see is that it's very very important and it's at the end of the day helping the syrian people do with the war to make economy. to have a step after the civil years of. a fresh east war against the syrian people. monday marks a year since the death of khaled a journalist working with r.t. arabic he died at the age of twenty five after shelling by islamic state in syria r.t. has made a documentary about khalid's work here is a preview. yes
3:40 am
but he loved life the morning of the day he died i was worried my mind started to come up with the scariest of images i was afraid he'd be captured by ice so i had a very bad feeling. we were near the front line the syrian army was battling i still i worked was over and we were about to pack or equipment khaled stood near me i put a helmet on him i just wanted to take a photo as a memory of my work with the film crew then the explosion came.
3:41 am
i realized something had happened i didn't know what exactly out of habit i started to film everything after i began filming so lot and the camera. i tried the room then realised i couldn't move my legs i couldn't see anything my eyes were covered in blood mixed with dust a call for khaled but nobody. i wanted to go on that mission but had a good idea i had of will she was bright and very determined she was a good journalist you could see that by his reports he did a lot not only for journalism but for his model and as well he helped people
3:42 am
soldiers she would bring them food and prompt. of a prisoner that i want to do something good for people but family did a lot for me and now i'm trying to do everything for my loved ones that's my main goal. party has set up a special award in carloads honor to recognize the best reporting from war zones the ceremony began with a minute's silence during the awards keller's mother gave a moving speech. and if it hadn't atmospheric feel of the not. middle you must sort of cut five beard in middle hi lou said secular.
3:43 am
with a moment stand out that us the. american and i mean i don't want to set a little at a lewd and don't. mend in. her duty. because i had been abused i had a corner and that i could emerge as a house a few. get out there to show that. side picture of us and i had them in ages it was me there is it in o.j. is it a kind of thing or how come come along murder her. i don't know how can get out of humor to this much earlier the hoopla. concern over global conflict feelings of helplessness and spending more time on social media could be symptoms of a new mental condition therapists in the usa there are seeing increasing numbers of patients through what they call donald trump anxiety disorder apparently it affects both his supporters and his critics those that dislike trant worry the world will
3:44 am
end while supporters feel isolated from society and even their families democrats also fret about the origin of trump success the twenty sixteen election which they insist was rigged by russia artie's chemical weapon as more. the ideas that are commonly labeled as conspiracy theories at this point are most commonly associated with right wingers and top supporters in the public mind however it seems that liberals also have their share of tinfoil hat thinking polls show that fifty five percent of democrats believe that russia actually did tamper with the voting results only thirteen percent of republicans buy into this idea which is pretty universally rejected even by the staunchest russia bashers star i know of no evidence that through cyber intrusions boats were altered or suppressed they did not change any votel ways or anything of that sort so if russia did indeed carry out election fraud on behalf of donald trump why would james clapper and john
3:45 am
brennan and the intelligence community say that they didn't do that are fifty five percent of democrats actually convinced that the cia is covering up for russia that's quite a conspiracy theory we decided to ask new yorkers about it do you think that russia changed the voting results in the last election no no not at all ok and fifty five percent of democrats apparently believe that why media that's why. propaganda fake news trump says it best they're delusional misinformed or they have their own agenda beyond that something else do you think that russia changed the voting results in the last election yes can you tell us now well i'm sure through technology they were able to somehow finagle possibly i think so i've heard that a lot so. yeah maybe but i don't know that they found.
3:46 am
one story that you keep bringing up and attack president trump and i think they're going to try to milk as much as they can. i personally don't see any evidence of fresh million or elections i lived through approval. yes. our media is a pearl and wall in the united states if people don't know the truth about what's really happening pressure is not the enemy that they make it out to be some people think that the moon landing was fake others think that nine eleven was an inside job and it seems that the majority of rank and file democrats believe that somehow russia got into voting machines and changed the vote for hillary clinton to vote for donald trump the truth is out there but perhaps people should look for it someplace else. r.t. new york well the frenzy surrounding trump even saw his hollywood star vandalized last week and this spawns a wry response from a group of pranks this. little

3:51 am
greetings and salutations. cannot reverse or change your direction of momentum or movement do not touch your face or rapidly blink your eyes or keep them wide open and stare at things do not group your bags to tide do not show any exaggerated emotion or no emotions at all. and make sure make sure. you do not smell if you can avoid doing any of these things and a host of others than you might hawk watchers can fly the friendly skies of the united states of america without fear of being place placed under a newly discovered t.s.a. domestic surveillance program titled quiet skies yes our good friends at the transportation security administration are at it again the boston globe reports
3:52 am
that federal air marshals have begun following ordinary u.s. citizens not suspected of a crime or on any terrorist watch list and collecting extensive information about their movements and behavior and then according to a march t.s.a. bulletin the quiet skies program specifically targets travelers who are not under investigation by any agency in our not in the terrorist screening database in fact the globe goes on to report that all u.s. citizens who enter the country from abroad are automatically screened for possible inclusion in the quiet skies program and if you are if you are lucky enough to make it on the t.s.a. as magical new list a host of undercover air marshals will be placed on your next flight to take notes on your every action and movement now naturally this kind of surveillance on u.s. citizens is more than just a wee bit unconstitutional george washington university law professor jonathan turley told the globe that quote if this was about foreign citizens the government
3:53 am
would have considerable power but if it's u.s. citizens u.s. citizens don't lose their rights simply because they're in an airplane at thirty thousand feet. you know it's easy to forget in these times of political the eye tricks peer propaganda surveillance state bootlicking that yes we do still have a fundamental right to privacy and due process regardless of what the t.s.a. the cia and any other agencies like them would have you believe. and this is why we must always be watching the hawks. what. it looks like. it's what. the bottom. like you know that i got.
3:54 am
the. tickets are. welcome on the watch of the harks i am and i'm to have a for a while and let's just say it's out of the good and i think it's jonathan turley the george washington university law professor saying that you're right so go at thirty thousand feet i feel like maybe he hasn't traveled lately yeah because you don't have free speech. you don't have freedom of movement you're not allowed to ask questions no father was not allowed to mouth was bigger than this right side small time you know talking now moving and now apparently you know coughing or sneezing know all the listening frightening where you know no sense there is that you can track of whether or not you shaved or not in between flights they keep track of whether or not you you know grip your luggage too tight i mean it's really
3:55 am
ridiculous at the end of the day and this is affecting a lot of people now they haven't gotten a full list of like how many they know that it's you know quite a few potentially and it's all over the country. look allegedly quiet skies as they subject the thousands of unsuspecting americans to this target an airport an in-flight surveillance on the airports and what we're talking not just any airports you look at the map you've got you know philadelphia minneapolis chicago miami beach harrisburg lost bag a sand berm cisco i mean that's all over the country. yeah mr hobbs and the major hubs are sort of catching people at these international crossroads of the united states put it where borders even though it's these are international airports are these places where a lot of international traffic happens that's not where they're looking at they're not looking at foreign nationals or foreign citizens traveling in and out and the process is kind of weird so according to the agency. that the documents that were
3:56 am
released all u.s. citizens who enter the country are automatically screen for inclusion and quiet so their travel patterns as you said affiliations are checked and their names are run against the terrorist watchlist and any other databases that sort of cover about kind of thing wow so once the list once the list travelers once they list travelers are you know are then surveilled in airports on flights as you said by these undercover air marshals documenting like you said at the army times go to the bathroom on a flight who you talk to you know if your items apple move to that's legendary one of them with their adam's apple flaps too much you know. it's i feel so much the same or already yeah thank god somebody is counting how many times somebody is adam's apple and this is a flake you like is that if you fly that turkey i mean that they they like they've gone after a lot of different people for there's some really weird places the t.s.a.
3:57 am
what's great is their response look the t.s.a. responded saying that when asked you know what legal basis are they using for this program what kind of you know what allows them to do this to u.s. citizens were accused of any crime or in any way that they told the boston globe that the t.s.a. in its safety efforts maintains a robust a robust and gauge mn with congressional committees to ensure maximum support and awareness. also remember the c.s.a. neither confirmed nor denied that this existed in the first place the actual quiet skies program times just because they can and that in talking about it or their procedures or if it actually exists or what they do. could make or are how effective it is could make passengers less safe. so ok so we're going to look at it don't talk about it judge it because if you're doing that you're letting everyone less safe about old excuse right through the thing that you see in that that air
3:58 am
marshalls are actually pushing back on this thank you so in interviews and then. interviews shared with the globe sky marshals say the program of shadowing travelers who appeared to have posed no threat whatsoever. a good one which is so business woman in half of their travel through turkey a southwest airlines flight attendant and a federal felony federal law enforcement officer so in their statement. john karr was ready the president of the air marshals the c.h.p. to clear the air marshals association believe that missions based on recognized intelligence or in support of ongoing federal investigations is the proper criteria for flight scheduling currently the quiet skies program does not meet the criteria we find acceptable so the t.s.a. is sort of the new kids on the block as far as this goes because they haven't been around as long as like the air marshals and that but every other agency and in the in-flight is saying no this doesn't work i don't know why you're doing.
