12:00 am
we have experts from different fields so psychology psychiatry law international law social work and theology and we try to discuss what can be next steps to help the pope to set up new measures to be more incisive in the life of the local church and there is still a lot to do you know my expression for this is this is a generational toss we will not finish within two years or five years we will have to work longer which means fifteen twenty maybe thirty years. when normally gets manufactured consent to public wealth. when the ruling class is protect themselves. with the famous.
12:01 am
lives and be the one person. making all the middle of the room sick. to leave the room for the real news is. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten like color crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of the global wealth you longs to the alter bridge eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need
12:02 am
to remember is one one business shows you can't afford to miss the one and only boom bust. you know world a big part of new things a lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. i want to show you something these are the ten cardinals that are usually
12:03 am
considered are the last powerful of the vatican this is the c. nine right it's an advisory board and here miller trafficked of the congregation of the doctrine in the face among these ten cardinals for our choose to of having covered up pedophile try as you know that of course. what you think of it i have no no particularly knowledge about any of them. i just said to me that you knew it i know that there are allegations but i don't know what what is the the background of these cases i am not the investigator if you want me to be more precise i'm sure ok george bell so he's here in australia a few months ago in front of the australian royal commission on sexual abuses within the church ear recognized knowing sexual abuses from australian priors but did not denounce them to justice so what do you think of him being in this he nine
12:04 am
with that story i have been to australia last year i've travelled i have been in the diocese i met with three survivors from the school where our nepad was at that time the vice director of the school and. willing gage to cooperate with justice and it were incorporated in the sense of setting up a safeguard in measures in the saying you will this is future but you didn't denounce sexual abuse it's very far and isn't this you know and he admitted is it sucking for you or not of course it was shocking you know for him to be in this you nine and not have been denouncing her sexual abuse of minors you know for sure. francisco it has always in chile here. doc human. so and that.
12:05 am
has waited five years after the first victim spoke out to take action to remove the prized father correcting him out and cya father carriage about has been since a trough and guilty by the vatican of sexual abuses is here still in the city nine . yeah i'm not responsible for the balance of the news what does she think of it i'm not the one who decides on that but what do you think i think they was they as long as i want something that thank you very much it seems that the only the pope has the power to punish his cardinals so why doesn't he take stronger action. maybe because he too faced accusations in his homeland of argentina long before his election. when he was archbishop of buenos aires he apparently tried to have a pedophile priest to put it. in
12:06 am
when a serious along with god or rather diego maradona the pope is a star his face is everywhere. and yet some refused to share of the sick on a graphical. in the city center we've arranged to meet a group of victims they were abused by priests in the archdiocese appointed serious . they alerted pope francis when he was there archbishop. this. is. all rumor this is. the. same. so the polls seem. to want us.
12:07 am
not. even moving though you literally got to let me play on that like to listen to what that's the answer to. that but is he lets us know that they don't know what it is. that if they can't. even you know young kids care to know you know i know. the you know that's the only thing i get it could even work if you're going to. even if you feel you through it simply want to get the witnesses to know. it. as archbishop of buenos aires pope francis was seemingly deaf to the distress of these victims. but apparently it's worse in another case concerning other victims
12:08 am
some believe he's willfully trying to divert the course of justice. if the father cross each case the biggest pedophilia scandal in the argentinian church secretary who you know says are grassy was one of the best known priests in the country very influential and often in the media spotlight doing well with a wild west big guy. she ran a huge orphanage until some of the children there launched a complaint against him for sexual abuse in two thousand and nine he was sentenced to fifteen years in prison still today he's behind bars. but the argentinean church did all in its power to have him acquitted. one public eye a go represented father grossness child victims. a trial spread over fifteen years and opposite him the most renowned attorneys in the land but also. the catholic church. see no innocent animals in an annual of mean this.
12:09 am
up but he said oh no leave it us in the most they don't know that this will take us o.s.c. theda mad those who are going to see it that are going to see him in the opposite of what a site is. don't be fooled by the cover which makes you think it's a book this twenty eight hundred page counter inquiry is a confidential internal argentinian church legal text. inside the children argues the falsifications lies deceit and invention even their own sexual orientation is questioned. the conclusion is clear the court's decision was wrong father rasi had to be acquitted on appeal. one paragraph caught our eye. this work was commissioned in two thousand and ten by the argentina biskupic conference and i notably by its then president cardinal bergoglio now pope
12:10 am
francis. so the pope did commission a counter inquiry to try to have a priest who had been sentenced for pedophilia acquitted. kind it said there was a burglary oh the future pope actually sent it to the judges with a shrewd sense of timing before father across these various appeal hearings. one of the magistrates received a copy of the counter inquiry agreed to meet us. problems my case a former appeal court judge and former minister of justice is today a high court judge. it's the first time he's spoken openly about the cross the case . he remembers very well the day he found this counter inquiry on his desk with a similarly is this the students who visit him as he is they were going through as a way in which you know enough of them.
12:11 am
they know they need to. get ill get d.n.a. oh now to see what equal that is and that will cost us more if i decided not that was it given that you're going to have got it it's an idea if i was the us look at what it is he said that said well that's what the impetus you also lead up places. from here on the interference that to defeat the costs to suit the man and. not finally useless father cross the sentence was upheld at both the appeals court and high court. at the center of the counter inquiry commission by the pope when he was archbishop of buenos aires is the account of a boy. the main victim of prophecy. since the case blew up in the early two thousand it's the first time he's agreed to talk to a reporter. he wants to remain anonymous because he still afraid of reprisals.
12:12 am
but soon i mean i see. it i hear it i hear it. now nationally custom sort of show of course. goes up as an island. also said as he. and i go shopping that's all we have in the midst. did the two of the here keep keep can says this to stephen. as i said well in the midst of the lemon asian little trip they see. that i'm on a no they go. loco and there it is i think i'm making up out of this i look at. the pope has never publicly commented on the grassy
12:13 am
case. for eight months we tried to get an interview with the holy father dozens of requests all refused. so at the vatican we tried to meet his holiness. he wants to hold a public audience on st peter's square. we want to give folks francis a letter with all our questions on his suppose a brawl in the attempt to divert the course of justice in argentina. thousands of people have heard. will need a miracle to get to talk to the pope. few hours later the pope will be on the rod.
12:14 am
the. the third time it passes we shall. do something that. is to give our last. thing a few minutes later. listen. listen to that end if that's the last the i don't think that i include that at tuesday's out in the. sunday that. and then castle got out phew i intend that the line flew into d.c. out and you. know better get the the united states to deal and castle garcia.
12:15 am
to go but i'm. that. despite our quick chat neither pope francis nor any vatican official has ever answered our letter. at the end of this investigation there is one question how can the catholic church retrieve itself from these guilty silences. serge human from a number of countries such as belgium the united states and the netherlands are mobilizing and launching a national inquiry commissions on sexual abuse within the church. all victims are listened to and the spotlight has fallen on the responsibility of the bishops. so let us pray may the vatican order a world wide inquiry commission. so that past scars maybe he'll may still have faith in the future.
12:17 am
12:18 am
on this edition of crossfire as we discuss whether detente is possible even desirable why isn't it a good idea to get along with russia and much much more. and then with a post. like this before. last time we chased. each one of them carrying twenty kilos of drugs. first offense down. the other then they just stopped going for us. is the very
12:19 am
12:20 am
let. us imposes new sanctions on iran but gets pushback from the e.u. with brussels filing to protect companies working with the wrong. also this our claims of double standards and i was in the us often in some. making a controversial journalist whose racist tweets from. for years. we catch up with. families after the children were taken from russia by their radicalized parents went to joint islamic state. i remember when the film crew arrived and they showed me the footage i could not believe it i could not believe
12:21 am
that it was possible that my girls could come back home. she doesn't let me go anywhere. thanks for joining us this. has announced the first round of sanctions against iran which she hopes will weaken the country's leadership president trump threatened severe consequences for those who continue to trade with iran still not everyone seems to be on board early and my colleague andrew farmer got more details from. the first round of sanctions will take effect tuesday around midnight and from that moment on sanctions will prohibit iran from trading gold and other precious metals and fails of iranian automobiles will also be banned now the first round of
12:22 am
sanctions will also ban iran's access to the u.s. dollar and place restrictions on its own currency but the worst is yet to come more sanctions are due to hit iran in november and those are specifically tailored to bring iran's oil exports to zero now this should come as no surprise given that trump has been flamming the iran deal since his campaign days even though he didn't give in until much later finally withdrawing this past may a little over a year into his presidency they said it was ineffective in for tailings so-called iranian aggression now not even his allies or the u.n. convinced him otherwise but trump also claimed that the agreement did not block paths to iranian nuclear ization which according to the u.n. is false even today u.n. monitors insists that iran is in full compliance with the deal the same deal that was lauded world over as a diplomatic breakthrough and believe it or not this past weekend trump bragged about crippling iran's economy via twitter of course his platform of choice when it
12:23 am
comes to informing americans about critical policy decisions but several analysts and some iranians feel a bit differently. i believe the impact of sanctions on people's lives has been very clear especially in the health sector the patience is one of the opportunities that are there for students to study abroad the impact has been negative and has reduced people power into. these sanctions are economic sanctions and they will impact the livelihoods of people the government after all can make adjustments to its budget but it's the people who bear the brunt i don't buy trump's line that these sanctions target the government these sanctions are being directly apply to the people but trump has stated that he's open to signing an. new deal but it's doubtful that iran would want to sit down with the u.s. after recent events ok let's go to peter. because the e.u. has given quite a stern response isn't it to the sanctions well that's right it's fair to say that
12:24 am
the european union and donald trump haven't seen eye to eye on a number of issues they fell out over the decision to move the u.s. embassy to jerusalem and in israel they fell out over donald trump's unilateral move to pull out of the paris climate accord but it's his decision to pull out of the iran nuclear deal that upset some of the biggest names in european leaders as well as in this one the diploma there was a communique issued well before this announcement that said the european union stance on the new tranche of sanctions was a unanimous no we are determined to protect european economic operators in legitimate business with iran this is why european union's updated blocking statute enters into force under seven of august to protect e.u. companies doing legitimate business but he ran from an impact of u.s. extraterritorial sanctions so what is the blocking statute well it was initially written into law back in one thousand nine hundred six it was designed to allow
12:25 am
european companies to get around a u.s. blockade of cuba however it was significantly rewritten earlier this year to focus on iran what it means essentially is that european companies have to pay no heed to sanctions against a country in which they're doing business say iran in this case and also that any courtroom in a foreign country based on those business dealings another fight in the eyes of the e.u. but put it this way with a hypothetical example say you're an e.u. car manufacturer and you've got yourself a toehold in a run maybe tens perhaps hundreds of millions of dollars worth of business that would be protected by the e.u. however the e.u. can't protect in another country. say the united states and say you that same you can manufacture and you do tens of billions of dollars worth of business in the u.s. well that business could potentially be penalized we haven't seen the e.u. blocking statute ever fully in acted we don't know how it's going to be received
12:26 am
but certainly potentially a legal headache for some people far smarter than myself right now to be going through that however in response to this news from the european union there's been a warm reception from tehran today the entire world has shown it disagrees with the u.s. policies against iran talk to anyone anywhere in the world and they will tell you that netanyahu trump and been some manner isolated not iran well the u.s. secretary of state might pompei i disagree strongly with that he says that the sanctions and needed against iran to bring them back to what he calls the table of normal nations they've got to behave like a normal country that's the ask is pretty simple we think that most other countries everyone with whom i spoke understand that they need to behave normally and they understand that this is a country that threatens them it would seem that those countries that secretary pompei i spoke to were not countries because this is where we stand at the moment
12:27 am
the european union has issued its toughest legislation to protect companies doing business in iran essentially saying that they won't support u.s. sanctions and they're going to do their best to try and keep the iran nuclear deal alive even without the united states the iranian president has this mr trump's call for talks he said diplomatic dialogue needs honesty which he says the u.s. president lacks. so there was an immediate member home was a go she actions with sanctions doesn't make sense or imposing sanctions on a green children patience the whole nation was if you stab someone with a knife and then you say you want negotiations with and first thing you have to do is remove the knife that the political analyst down days brooke told us of iran had become an economic battleground for the e.u. and the us this is a war on the population you know if the currency collapsed to a third of its former value that means people are living basically on a third of what they were living on just
12:28 am
a few months ago that obviously relations are very very bad at the same time i think of trying believes that iran's just going to roll over and capitulate i think he's got another think coming forward trumps claims to be anti globalist and so on this is the same old us imperialism and other trump represents this also aimed at europe as well don't forget you know that this is interesting europe hasn't fallen in line behind the u.s. on this and i think that's a reflection of the fact that the e.u. realizes this is a war against them as well they're the ones invested in iran they're the ones who are losing billions and billions of dollars of investment early stages of this manifesting on the economic battleground which at the moment is in iran but this is a battle between the u.s. and e.u. . conservative american activist can base owens has been briefly suspended by twitter for mimicking the racist tweets of a new york times journalist caleb orpen has more. she's been removed from twitter
12:29 am
because they say that her tweets violate their rules regarding hateful content candace she's from turning points usa conservative organization in the usa what she did was she took hundreds of tweets from sarah jiang regarding white people she simply changed the target of the tweet from whites to black or jewish when she did this the response of twitter was to shut down her account candace owens says that twitter was right to take down her posts and ban her for making hateful comments regarding black and jewish people she says however the outrage is that sarah johnson was not banned for making these comments about white people on the surface i actually agree with twitter's assessment i believe that what i said what i tweeted was wrong you should not be able to tweet about any race or any group that you want them canceled that they should live underground i don't know why suddenly people think that white people are excluded from that scenario that people can't be
12:30 am
racist towards white people when in fact they often are the problem with the new york times essentially saying shinning her behavior is that they are signaling to the rest of the world that racism actually is ok as long as you pick the right race this was candice owens first statement to her followers after the ban twitter not only reinstated her account but actually apologized and said that it was a mistake for her to be banned now immediately there was a firestorm with people pointing to what they see as a double standard by the way as you go. tweets i'm replacing wants with blank i'm in tweets of bones the twelve hours double standard every time i see one of these i can't help substitute black for white can do so in stupid i will never understand the double standard why it's acceptable to so many now the wikipedia page of the new york times journalist is also in question now the page
