families to the city of italy what was it like for them traveling in the russian buses i understand with isis and al qaeda linked groups on libyan they want transported in russian buses the buses were sponsored by the evacuation process was sponsored by the red presence and there was a deal between the opposition parties and russia however when they were moved to italy they did so on the names that were different from their real names and they didn't explain that they were volunteers with the white helmets by fear of the revenge that they could have been subjected to they were afraid and worried we were in direct communication with them throughout their journey and they were afraid during their journey until they reached a safe place which was the point where they will receive the syrian government says it's just waiting. to groups in al qaeda linked groups british government in a freedom of information request said that you document war crimes for the british government is that would you send the british government gotten out of the city in truth the syrian war is a global issue it's no longer the issue of the syrian regime alone we know that the
10:01 am
party that negotiates in syria in support of the syrian regime is russia and the parties that negotiate in other areas are other countries this issue is no longer syrian in syria the issue is also an international one and it now needs an international trial and an international court in order to hold accountable those who have committed violations in syria from all sides as everybody knows is the regime has used chemical weapons in syria on the fourth of april twenty seventh seen. as that is according to the report that was produced by the joint investigation committee where in constituted by the decision of the security council that stated in its report dated on the twenty eighth of october twenty seventh seen that the syrian regime has used sarin gas in concho home and resulted in ninety one dead and five hundred thirty nine wounded because of this we are in need of an international trial for the judgment of those who have committed violations in syria in order to reach peace and stability in syria yes the o.p.c. w. hasn't said whether it was the way helmets the syrian government. the russians the
10:02 am
british who used the chemical weapons and luckily i didn't say that the o.p.c. w. is the one that made the statement i said the joint investigation committee which is constituted by the decision of the security council in twenty fifteen is the one that produced the report on the twenty eighth of october twenty seventh and said that the syrian regime is the party that stands behind the attacks that took place on the fourth of april twenty seventh you can refer to the report it's available on the security council website and it was published on the twenty eighth of october twenty seventh seen ok just finally about documenting war crimes the journalist vanessa believes the daughter of a former senior british diplomat do or attention to the beheading of a twelve year old. neuro. in july twenty sixth abducted near a white helmet base in ireland sorry why is there no white helmet documentation of the killing of this boy. first of all vanessa billie's not
10:03 am
a journalist that makes reliable reports because she knows that she is not truthful and she does not work in an unbiased way when russia stop the o.p.c. double teams from going to do much to check the place for the use of chlorine gases in the last few bombings vanessa beatty was present there herself the russians allowed her to access that particular place when they did not allow the international teams to do the same for this reason we cannot confirm any news that have come from vanessa believe that we did not know about that place we did not know about that issue we only heard about it through social media and we denied the story we did not see that event to publish or announce it we have denied that incident and it does not abide by the international humanitarian content rules and regulations do and certainly if in these aren't. thank you. thank you very much. coming up in part two of going on the ground we speak to a journalist who has been on the ground in syria but really a longtime critic of the white helmets noticeable coming up about to a going underground.
10:04 am
some people. use indigenous people as you know we that the speed in. the trees. and so. all of a sudden a man just. told the jailer. i said i will enter it in the they will the law and. they will shoot week.
10:05 am
long on a million million indeed i'm definitely going to gain i mean if he didn't that you could have been killed by that you mean i know that i think i'm a little bit like i mean you can be i you. welcome back in the first half of today's going underground we talked to the head of the british backed white helmets organization ride out solid well i'm joined now by a journalist referred to by riot and who's been on the ground in syria joining the war her accounts of different widely from those of the white helmets and she joins me now by skype from bordeaux in france for that's a thanks for coming back on the show this goes straight to what dr del sol it said about you he said you were biased untruthful and that while the o.p.c. w. would not allow the sights of a chemical attack in dubai you were allowed in protected by the russians that's an
10:06 am
interesting theory i mean this russian agent many men is now wearing a little bit fan i'd like to make the point that the white helmets were actually being investigated as far back as two thousand and fourteen my research is like. re morningstar and starting in two thousand and fifteen just like before russia or r.t. before any russian media channels got involved in two thousand and sixteen and i'd also like to point out that i didn't actually end to do him until after the a.p.c. double team had been allowed to go in the syrian government and the russian reconciliation teams expedited the entry of the i.p.c. w. team into syria but it was deemed dangerous by by the syrian arab republic and by the russian military police and by the un department for safety and security for them to go into dhimmitude quickly because if the rest of ids booby traps mines sleeper cells and in fact when they did try to enter one point i think it was on
10:07 am
the eighteenth of april they were fired upon and they had to withdraw very quickly at that point there were two fatalities and i think at least one injured so to claim that the syrian government or that they russian reconciliation teams were not enabling the entry at the a.p.c. w.-a is rubbish i answered as part of a media trip organized by the ministry of information and like any other media outlet that goes into syria in fact on the team that i went in with were i.t.v. dan rivers and a number of other mainstream media channels so i'm quite sure that i t v would not like to be described as having had their entry facilitated by russia. and as i said at the time that we entered i p c w or actually working. they alleged attack site now the question i would like to raise in return is now that they have p c w interim report has been published and it is clear that no sarin was used they only
10:08 am
chlorinated elements could quite easily have come from tap water in the area and something is monday is that who were the white helmets working with to stage this provocation. because clearly the white home reports were fake news because the dublin report has now discredited their video footage so i would like to ask in return who brought those bodies that were found by the white helmets and other organizations what was done to those bodies to prepare them as if it had been a chemical attack why were those bodies rearranged just picked up even by b.b.c. journalist on twitter i should say that obviously the o.p.c. w. did say that sarin was used in goon in the other incident and as regards what you seem to be implying a fake videos and photos he says other organizations seeking to discredit them spread fake videos and photos online not them not them but story interesting
10:09 am
because the majority of the evidence against the white home it's actually comes from groups that are affiliated with the word home as i euphemistically called rebel groups or moderates and also many of the accusations come from syrian civilians themselves. who are there allegedly to document what crimes against all sides will be discrediting the evidence given by i think an stammen against the armed militant groups funded and backed by the west as fake news or as evidence that is being promulgated to discredit the word how much they appear to do a very good job of that. the the freedom of information request that you go from british authorities said that british funding of the white helmets it's not just the one way deal they have to document war crimes he claims to know nothing about the twelve year old. who you've written about being a doctored mireya white helmet sent rebel and sorry and then being beheaded. yeah
10:10 am
absolutely i went to they island sorry center. of this year and i visited the white helmet center that which was again next door to a new store front center next door to the terrorist media center there were isis like i was painted on the walls of the buildings next door to the white home and center arms and weapons were found inside al and sorry white home and center in barron line they sent a feature in the last man and i like the second oscar nominated me pretty star on the white house by affiliates of the white house and that's and very much promoted which in fact was very much a revisionist project erasing the existence of nostra from some other splinter groups terrorist groups extremist groups sectarian groups that were operating in a celeb or in carrying out a trustee's against the syrian civilians i walked from the island sorry center to serco which is where our abilities are
10:11 am
a twelve year old palestinian child was tortured and publicly the head it despite pleading to be allowed to be killed him and in the now is right saleh trying to tell me that one of the main white home accent is that feature as in want to if they're major promotional vehicles last men and heard that there were no white helmet present at the center during that execution or if they were not present there during the execution why did they not at least document that crime which was i mean that was not how he documented on social media it was documented across mainstream media because it was so hard to ignore and it raised questions about the u.s. funding of the great northern sinky who were ahead as an executed. you don't see it as possible that waythe helmets did indeed have to flee. in a while and sorry because they are solid just told us that they have to flee areas sometimes i don't know maybe because the russians are in a strikes and their equipment is used by other group. again that discredits them in
10:12 am
the eyes of journalists like you i'm not sure what he means by their equipment is used by other groups but if he's suggesting that i their material was planted to discredit them at those various white house that they leave and right then that doesn't explain the mountain of civilian testimony that i gathered burthen east a lebanese group. that fundamentally accused the white home it's of crimes against the syrian people of participating in a number of crimes committed by you know sort of front and other extremist factions against the syrian people and those include of course summary execution of civilians excuse by james limousin army and they m i five creator of the white house and that's as being committed under sharia law so he's basically indorsing hobby doctrine and east elaborate but they were also involved in the kidnapping of
10:13 am
children according to a syrian somebody in testimony which i believe should be addressed as a crime let's get to testimony because i raise the subject of all miranda commish the famous boy who was photographed covered in dust the white helmet. leader rather salah said he was never filmed by the white helmet the boy was saved by the white elephant as it was a brother and his father's interview on this job amongst other outlets was under duress from the syrian authorities he would never say the guy did things that he said to r.t. that if the syrian authorities were not forcing him to again a very interesting and sparingly but unfortunately full of holes and i actually met with around the nation his family and his father mohamed that me and last year as did eva but let another independent journalist who has worked extensively on the ground inside syria and the story that we were told of course is that the image of
10:14 am
on iran was exploited. if not specifically by the white helmet certainly by the entire p.r. team that manufactures the image of the white home it's including kenneth roth including the syria campaign and in fact it was used extensively to promote their nomination for the nobel peace prize in two thousand and sixteen by as i say a number of their p.r. agencies so while they may claim that they didn't directly use or exploit the image of from iran the clear exploitation of the tragedy of. plight to promote war which will effectively kill more children was carried out by the what how much and their handlers and however when i went to the area and i met by from ron and his family it was in the attack was in the hell category area so i went and met other families from that area and what they told me was that it was not a syrian government asteroid or
10:15 am
a russian as strike it was shelling from the terrorist factions because that area was ninety inhabited by those who were loyal to the syrian regime and in fact throughout syria the syrian government and in fact throughout the occupation of the celebrity that area had been targeted various houses had been detonated destroyed and members of families had been kidnapped and tortured and then executed purely because they were considered to be loyal to the syrian government so the entire but granted the amount story that of course is being revealed after the liberation of eastern operate from the terrorist groups and the white house let's reveals the fact that actually right salary is not very clear in his facts and ok well one thing he was very clear about was the fact that the why the elements currently work with the free syria police the closest mainstream media in this country got to talking about rebel involvement in al-qaeda linked groups was a b.b.c. better of a program surprised that he admitted working with the free syrian police which the
10:16 am
b.b.c. . linked to al qaeda is job at all those of you know i am surprised and perhaps it it explains the extent to which it demonstrates the extent to which they screw up and its members and its leaders consider them to be protected by the intelligence agencies who are behind the funding of them in the u.k. and the us and the e.u. member states in qatar etc. and the very fact that the free syrian police i believe in the panorama program the b.b.c. stated that these operations could not could not work without the control or without the permission of news for front and various other extremist groups now the british government is behind the funding of the freezer in place the local councils and the what home that all three of those organizations have been demonstrated through mine vast occasions with the help to kitty of khaled this guy from a local journalist in east in aleppo who worked with me independently on the
quote
10:17 am
documentation that we found in there is what homemade centers but all of those three organizations are led by and managed by members of extremist groups such as for example abdul aziz martyr b. who was actually president of the local council in two thousand and thirteen but also founded the what how much group in a celebrity was a member of news were from and was also associated where katty babu a mother who with a extremely brutal security group that worked with her front while the white home is can claim affiliation to these terrorist groups and they will claim that there are a few bad apples if there are a few bad apples committing the atrocities that the white how much have been shying to be committing and participating in among the syrian arab red crescent for example or in the red cross that would be international outrage instead what we see is a complete blanket protectionism can't. lane waged by western media western governments
10:18 am
think tanks institutions including the un should protect this group and that's a really thank you no doubt james the missouri the u.n. and the u.k. department rigid actual development would deny allegations against them we hope to put specific other allegations right outside of the white helmets next time he's on the show but that's if it is going on the guy will be back on monday to investigate alleged paid police corruption with former metropolitan police chief inspector rod charles until the people judge of us via social media will be on monday fifty eight years to the day cuba formally nationalized all u.s. and foreign owned property on the island it's finance minister che guevara would be assassinated by cia backed forces seven years later.
10:19 am

10:24 am
kept a campaigner so call this the equivalent of modern day slavery and are calling on the authorities to do more to talk of the problem what is the scale of this my service massive individual charities report thousands of calls a year to their helplines the problem stretches far and wide affecting middle eastern asian afghan kurdish iranian and other communities living in the u.k. . became a criminal offense in britain in twenty four teams in new england we've only had two criminal convictions and yet we see thousands of people reporting that is disproportionate so why alkie called too afraid to prosecute to fray. to take a stand and minister is our whole if he should and speak out against this part of that reason i fear has everything to do with the fear of offending me the home office classifies these as reluctant sponsor cases while describing itself as the
10:25 am
world leader in tackling the horrendous crime of forced marriage there are a number of reasons why cases are referred to the forced marriage unit not all of which are the result of a reluctant sponsor getting in contact in some cases it will be decided following inquiries that no further action is necessary and a visa will be issued if an individual refuses to act as the sponsor for a visa application then under the immigration rules that visa should not be issued . those campaigning to highlight the problem disagree accusing the authorities of knowingly allowing criminals into the country in these cases the victims themselves report said they didn't want this person to come to the country and yet still what the data tells it is under a freedom of information requests by the journalists was that these visas were still allowed so we had these people living in britain now. as
10:26 am
a result of our victim be forced into marriage the u.k. home secretary has now announced launching an investigation into the handling of these cases the charities have been getting her very thick stories of young women forced into abusive marriages for the sake of uki beezus for years and as they see a target out party london. politicians across the us are campaigning for seats in local and congressional midterm elections too in november they described as one of the most important in recent history because it could swing the republican majority currently loz donald trump to deliver on his policies there's also the possibility too that the democratic majority if it happens could make threats of impeachment much more realistic caleb maupin reports next the not how trump has become the focus of this campaign. now the midterm elections are months away and across the country it seems pretty clear that the elections will focus on one single issue donald trump that's not an exaggeration check out this campaign ad from florida
10:27 am
everyone knows my husband run to see and has endorsed by president trump he's also an amazing dad ron loves playing the kids build the wall you read stories then mr trump said you're right. and maybe america. now that just scientists has the blessing of the donald he's rising in the polls trump has actually managed to resurrect a number of republican primary campaigns and for the democrats trump is an easy punching bag and the bogeyman check out how this candidate is marketing his anti trump message i'm rich metal you know i'm running for governor to deliver progressive results and to stand up to donald trump here a few of the things i've done that already in january i protected planned parenthood from the republicans in congress. and what's to never a one way. for the republicans. take that trump now the ad never really makes clear how offending the president is going to help the people
10:28 am
in maryland but that doesn't seem to matter the anti trump message is loud and clear and that's the name of the game in u.s. politics are you for trump or against him no other information is required that's not surprising when it comes to voters as they're divided along party lines like never before this is actually spook ing members of congress you cannot just run against donald trump. and it is the job of we democrats to put together a strong cohesive economic group of proposals aimed at the middle class and those struggling to get there we are in a strange place it's almost it's becoming a cultish thing isn't it it's not a good place for any party to end up with a cult like situation as it relates to a president that happens to be purportedly of the same party the democrats are now taking the cult thing to a whole new level there even invoking old uncle joe he has very deliberately set
10:29 am
up the press as the enemy of the people i. think that we first heard from joseph stallin this is very dangerous it undercuts democracy we decided to ask americans how much their vote will be influenced by one man's cult of personality do you plan to vote in the upcoming midterm elections. why not. go there. you need to look at the candidate and you need to see what the candidate has to offer and what the whether the candidate can pull off what they're promising to do what they think of trump not just what they've been trying to do you plan to vote in the midterm election. if you want to try to win again i don't like i don't like alan. views on that but it will. mean that. you can say what i believe in and about this now and that it seems like america has already decided what the key issue in the upcoming vote will be and it's not going to be perceived the russian influence as some outlets would like you to believe it's
10:30 am
going to be the donald but keep in mind he won't actually be anywhere on the ballot these are mid-term congressional elections but regardless the way american politics is developing it seems like the upcoming vote in november will be a referendum on one man he will mop and r.t. new york. former advisor to congressman ron paul said that the upcoming midterm election in the u.s. is basically boiled down the building a referendum no one donald trump. this election like most but this one especially this midterm elections upcoming in the united states is not going to be about ideas particularly going to be about policy there's a very anti intellectual mood in the country right now there's really three parties in the united states right now there's the trunk party there's the. trump or non trump republicans would just sort of the remnants of the old george w. bush reagan era party and then there's the democrats democrats have a lot.
