welcome back to sophie and co no the other day i sat down with the legendary filmmaker oliver stone and in moscow bookstore and ask him whether a second cold war was just a figure of speech or is to or more to it it's a figure of speech for sure cold war it's a. very dangerous war it's on the you know you can even say that the original cold war was really a cold war where there were so many proxy wars that were fought in the name of fighting communism you like vietnam. among others korea. you wonder how many people died in the name of that cold war you know millions of a third world people have been hurt after all over africa there was battles. and certainly in them we've seen now in the middle east we've seen enormous amount of damage. the specter of communism doesn't work anymore the united states was not

able to use that but there is this and haran carry over in fact and i'm sure that's in the minds of those congressmen when they vote against for the expansion of russians actions in their mind it's some form of the old russia and they can't get they can't get one side of the line away in the eighty's in the ninety's how come they came back so strongly i mean what is going to take for that paradigm to disappear from american mind generation was quite surprised by that i was in fact shocked i talking to mr gorbachev was one of the most wonderful moments of my life it was i felt in one thousand nine hundred ninety my lifetime was a spring springtime of hope a new feeling that this thing was going to change you know that the the wall came down. all the europe eastern european countries expressed love bloodless revolution really a bloodless revolution and russia. relatively both. and i was

and mr gorbachev you know was not the crook in america we saw him as a lion as a hero and in this country of course he was seen as a weak man who had lost control of this of this empire so it's a whole different view of it and i've been see mr gorbachev since then i've been through his criticisms of mr putin and i have to say the last time i saw him he said that mr putin is the guy for now whatever they say because america has violated that compact he made in one nine hundred ninety eight hundred eighty nine that nato would not go east one inch if the germany's were united he allowed for that and that has not happened nato has been accelerated under you know under the american under clinton and and bush and obama so and mr gorbachev has pointed out also the the what mr putin says is they greedy on the abrogation of the a.b.m.

treaty by the by bush by mr bush in two thousand and one was a vast mistake it and it undermines the the nationals the the balance of power that exists between the two countries on top of that you have the american support. putin the scent of terrorists in the caucasus on top of that you have opposing points of view on ukraine obviously and mr putin states his case very clearly in this book what his case is which americans don't hear and on top of that you have syria which again it's amazing to me how under reported that war is. orci has covered what about yemen aren't just. reported to be on the list i want to talk more about this and the context in which to spook came out fills in a weird way that when the actual cold wars in place it was just clean cut you know you have to sidestep where against each other now for me it's so much more scarier

because the world is paul or and there's so much house around and everyone's trying to pull it on themselves. and all those conflicts that you just mentioned and many more that we didn't mention are going on because of that and we don't understand how they're going to end or if they can and it's always messy. you're young like hell you must be near thunder not that young but you think i guess you know to me the original cold war was very confusing and not so clean us against them in fact i went to vietnam as a young man believing that we were fighting communism in other words there were a lot of disguises and when you look back at the whole history of that period as we tried to do an untold history the united states i would have to tell you that it's very clear that it was a farce that the united states really pulled the wool over the world's eyes and declaring and making the soviet union the fall guy after having won world war two

they made them the fall guy for war tutu and equated hitler with stalin and also all this stuff going on it comes out of the this misunderstanding of what that first cold war was america has spent a fortune fighting this war and it's deprived its own people us the american people of better education better system more security health welfare all these things that are giving us problems now this social net that's disappearing could have come out of that instead of beans the the money being spent on the cold war so we paid a huge price for it and it never let up i remember in eighty nine there was talk of a peace dividend they talk of it what happened to the peace dividend a few weeks after the berlin wall fell mr bush sr was. going into iraq sending five hundred thousand troops to the middle east and i pointed out

it was a big thing because we went when we sent five hundred thousand troops to vietnam was actually under lyndon johnson that was a huge deal and the press made a. big big number of that not not since world war two that we knew those numbers were too big we were fighting with too many men we don't it won't work it was too big and what happened we forgot about it reagan mr reagan helped a lot with his campaign to forget the vietnam war and we were sending a half million men again abroad to fight in the middle east we never got out of the middle east i made a movie about it called w in which dick cheney the dick cheney's character have to ask what what's our exit policy says there is no exit and the truth is we haven't there is no exit to iraq where here those five hundred thousand men in one form or another have never left the middle east so this is heartbreaking stuff if you have any sense of history when i knew it was a mistake i thought the iraq war one was

a huge mistake i thought there was plenty of room to negotiate when films like that come out w for instance are at the untold history of the united states they want to even mention how as a percent in america when you pretty much denounce a lot of troops and facts in american history i can't tell you it's easy but i think it's the most some of the most important work i've done in my life i'm very proud of those two films i've paid a price for because i guess some people will you know they don't consider me in the debate but neither do they consider people like noam chomsky so there is no center in the united states political discourse it's all center right ever since the clinton camp people came into power the center right has become the right and there's no peace party that exists in my country and i don't see any evidence of it except this third party that is so criticized the green party among others make fun of it. you know why i don't know me so well

a year in america i always had the feeling the democrats would the the people at least we were concerned about peace now that seems to have been squandered that feeling is squandered and i don't sense any any sense of consensus the only one who did it was bernie sanders and if you remember correctly he very rarely mentioned foreign policy he stayed away from it because he knew that was a third rail for him and he was to socialistic for america to actually well i don't know much about because america may hand up in relatively has to go may have to go more socialistic in order to survive because if things fall apart and we continue to have crises after crises stock market explosions and so forth and meltdowns there has to be a you know i'm right and they want to know what had trump to change something you know but remember a mr obama song what was it seven hundred fifty billion dollars into the economy that's i would call that a socialist move. so you know where the united states is going it's a very it's interesting i think i'm going to try to stick around and see because i

think that's a great question it sounds i mean just to be on the sidelines and see what happens it could get really ugly and be pretty nasty too in terms of casualties and of course united states i would skip i'm scares me in the sense that it might lose its self control and out of the sense of panic and fear attack. this concept that russia is responsible for everything isn't saying but it's very easy to to resort to that kind of nineteen early one nine hundred fifty s. primitivism like a joe mccarthy i was told when i was a young boy the soviets are in our schools they're in our colleges they are there they're creeping into our system where the soviets are going to take us over without even a war that was i heard this from serious people. you know it is you have to allow that this mentality exists and when you're around a vigilante mob that hangs people it's scary because you common sense goes out the

window it's the first thing and decency and humanity you go out the window so it scares me that mentality and you know a lot about politics you know politicians and you know something about scripts give me a scenario of how this should work out. their reality are you asking for a movie from my point of view from the american side it's not going to happen any other way and that's what's frightening because i don't see that russia can take any initiative at this point except for surrender would completely all your nuclear arms and have a regime change mr putin resigns which is insane to happen because the russian people support him i don't see any way out right now. no third parties do exist they come into being there's de gaulle's that come up from charles de gaulle you hope for a french leader or a european leader i was very disappointed in merkel throughout this whole process because she knows better she knows the real story of ukraine she doesn't fall for

it because her foreign minister was involved they knew they knew what was going was a coup d'etat the ukraine and but in other words there's has to be some kind of european leader. the kind of thing you know to america and i think yeah that's one way of putting it mr de gaulle i was around when mr goss said no to america that was quite really have friends you know look young to you i mean they have. their own way of going to go is really a proud man and proud for france. one hopes for that but there's other ways that the blocks can be broken there's of course china that's a huge number but the united states is to hit a hard line on china doesn't say it like it does say it about russia but the reason that we're arming korea to the degree that we are in japan is truly against the chinese to encircle the chinese. but i worry about korea because we again have so much or so many arms we put into japan and korea. you know this thing can but it

can blow up in a second it's like a tinderbox. well it doesn't look good at your age i would like to live out the rest of my life you know what do you do what do you do you bringing attention to it that's the best you can do right now. to my view you should make a movie about this and you shouldn't certainly not in your career i think it was an increase of four hundred s. why did this because i did care and i want to i want i want peace to have a chance and i think every time i talk to mr putin over those thirty hours i never sensed any other desire in his part but to have a balance of power respect for each other sovereignty and a sense of peace in the world here and that's what people don't accept from him they can't believe that this man who was they consider a villain is an average of peace. thank you very much i was living in france you think.

people will. join me every day on the alex salmond show when i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport i'm sure. i'll see them. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten thousand dollars fine tamping each day.

eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be culled from rich point six percent market saw thirty percent minus minus two years 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 to remember is one one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only boom bust. america was never great was founded on a raid in a murder. nothing changed so we said all responses to these situations that we're dealing with. people get sad every

day he is just sad people kill each other blacks are killing children. how many still is just no way that people are going to just sit back and allow children to be shot down law enforcement. this country doesn't work for us it doesn't function for us. this is can't be happening in america we call from the streets we've got to deal with why this is the reason i have to rat like this is the reason . the ways of the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. cost of the highest. that's not the word of sympathy i want to become lost and i won the last post on this topic but many of them look for refuge in the so called sentries sides of the draft used to share information about undocumented migrants

with federal authorities. person as bank of mom. was you know. they are the best and i get them in a lot of class and they want that. they have water they are options to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house for political rivals. the who could be about to do. a sit sit struggles of many couples. who were trying to push the political sparkles. of you up of up to the bulk of the.

i thought internationalists monday morning coming up american far right groups are outnumbered by a counter protest outside the white house and washington becomes on the first anniversary of the deadly good night the right rally in charlottesville where a neo nazi plotted his car into a crowd to protest. in the headlines to this morning a hacking contest in the u.s. reveals that even a year old could interfere with the american election infrastructure and the results. i mean if. we can come to me our own name if we want to make a living we won the election. israel's controversial nation state law is up for debate jewish citizens claim they face discrimination because of it or

supporters say it simply defends israel's identity. this law says that this land is only for half of the population and the other half would be discriminated against i think that work is just or it is the exact example why we needed to have a person who is not an israeli citizen it is bashing my country in israel all citizens are equal under the law and. by their very good morning to my name is kevin irwin you're watching out international live from h.q. in moscow hey very good to have you company this monday morning first in the headlines farai groups of white nationalists have been outnumbered by a counter protest outside the white house in washington it was held on the first one year anniversary of the infamous unite the right rally in charlottesville virginia that so bitter clashes between the rival groups.

yes. i was. told months ago the deadly unrest in charlottesville deepened political divisions in the u.s. is a reminder of how events unfolded then a warning you may find to some of the upcoming images disturbing right.

terrorism is is the use of violence to incite terror and fear and of course it was terrorism this egregious display of hatred bigotry and violence on many sites on many sites. that was then this is now a year after the tragedy now some american politicians a suggesting that russia was somehow behind the unrest. i sat in a closed session briefing probably two months ago about charlottesville with the director of the f.b.i. amongst others and asked if russian intermeddling had to do with fomenting the

flames of what happened in charlottesville i was told yes it did but he says he got it from an f.b.i. briefing which was not classified now look if he has information if the f b i has information i'd love to hear it so what erica but it seems kind of bizarre to me that a congressman who says he's not running for reelection because he's having personal problems all of a sudden with a couple of months left in his term takes the opportunity on c.n.n. which will do anything to bash trump and to accuse russia of anything he knows something that nobody has ever heard of until this point that was russia's last year well then let's the where is the information if it's not classified tell us everything you found out so i don't i don't believe that is it from ation let's see if. we have people in washington this thoughts on the claim that russia could somehow be behind the racial divisions in the u.s. . do you buy in the idea that it's russia's fault that the people having the rally over there is somehow the fault of russia russian bought tacker facebook yet not

even a little and why do you think that's so big in the mainstream media why are they pushing that so hard. that's a good question i don't know i think it kind of it's comforting to hear that this is russia's fault and not something that's been wrong with america since the foundation of this country it's nice to say it's russia's call to go and it's trump's fault and that once trump is gone and once you know the elections are more secure and the race is not a fade away because the russian bots or the russian hackers are no longer influencing people to be racist but that's not true it's just a nice story you can tell yourself say this racism and this is the white supremacy the united states is not the fault of the united states the cult of rush hour you know whatever else the media is kind of using the russia stuff as a way to. go after the laughs as they're saying all these left wing activists are being. you know misled by russia or russia is behind it and you know even though there are genuine grievances to be had with you know all sorts of things that and russia plays

a minor role if any in you know on the internet do you buy the idea that all this racism and all this division and all these protests are all caused by russia. now i honestly think it's just what i want to highlight is the intersectionality of what happened that day like there were a small amount of white supremacists here but there are a lot of people who are coming to counter protest them so i don't blame russia well the russia did it montrose but i quit for some time now of course but even for hardened russophobia it's going to be increasingly how do the swallow. thank you. thank you. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut.

cut cut. cut cut cut. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut. cut thanks .

to the u.s. has revealed that it doesn't take a top notch russian computer expert to get into america's election infrastructure it turns up an eleven year old can do it. learn more about the twenty hacking contest that's what the link says and yes it's from a real website and the contest surreal to it's for kids and it's not being held in russia what this is america anyway meet the winner eleven year old audrey i mean if . you meet me we can cause in the our own name it reminds me that we won the election and it just took her ten minutes to hack a replica of an election office website in one of the battleground states. these are members of congress they work hard to approve budget grants to sort out election cyber security the one for twenty was three hundred eighty million bucks

these are child hackers i mean contestants they tap their keyboards to prove that within minutes america's election systems are a piece of garbage thirty five out of the thirty nine youngsters taking part this year were able to do just that so how come there haven't been any warnings for a grown up specialists well actually there have always been the milling machine is no different states and it's extremely easy to get advantage of this kind it's mostly it's a let me show you how quick it is that a little under two minutes. you don't need any totals to do that. and now i have. full advantage it looks like you don't have to turn pro to be a meddling master and outsmart security efforts worth hundreds of millions of dollars don't bother guessing hole be the ones to take advantage come november

we've already been told many times there's no doubt russian hackers ahead of the midterm they know it was arrogant and security of. the russians are targeting members of congress the us. midterm elections are just around the corner and russia's attack continues to haunt the united states russian election interference in the twenty thousand midterms the russians have not reduced their hacking it's even the first thing the prodigy's at the conference will tell you right there which could also be a great excuse when someone asks the suits why the systems vulnerable to say the least by the way when the good will hackers look back at their previous conference they wrote if russia can attack our election so can others iran north korea isis or even criminal or extruding this groups because let's face it if hacking an american

election is child's play perhaps.
