international sweden is a rocked by a string of awesome attacks across the country it's thought the fires were coordinated with dozens of young people involved. financial markets around the world as the economic standoff between turkey and the u.s. escalates. also donald trump provokes a storm of criticism of the revoking the security clearance of several high profile figures that includes the former cia director john brennan. so well plenty of news for you on this thursday morning program not just off eight

am here in moscow let's get into it sweden has been a rocked by a string of boston attacks with over eighty vehicles set on fire across the country in one night and with september elections looming the incidence of crimes such as vandalism rape and murders is on the rise. now looks at what impact this might have on the upcoming vote. it's not even dark people look out their windows and see this. the first train local searches completely baffled and can't squeeze out a word a few moments later they erupt in sheer fury and they scream. that's. their next on is it even safe to leave their homes now the hooded dogs

smashed up and burned mostly cars they know what they're doing they know how to do it the art team and the last few days there were almost identical scenes everywhere you see a flame i can swedish media say at least about one hundred cars are now burnt out piece of metal police have made a number of arrests but basically the country still in the dark about who's behind the menace was i was. thinking very. different. in about three weeks sweets will be voting for their new parliament well now politicians here have more things to worry about than stuff like their election from. before the most any custom have all the question has to be asked of those people that if there's no one to hack who are you doing with that figure who do you think you are

a bonus you destroyed the whole area for the neighbors for the children on their way to preschool you have to see burns out because we're going to be hard response from side to any other social to somewhat strong words but not as emotional as society which clearly wants the ones in charge to get it sorted. such neighborhood disasters don't come out of nowhere when it comes to all kinds of street crime lately sweetens been getting less and less safe the last time i was attacked by five people that took my wallet the bike told them there was increased number of shootings has gotten worse in every way the police man said that he had never experienced anything like that in the four changed. it is not a sweet and large number and when the years of ignoring the trends backfired literally with flames some of the swedish elite chose not to talk about the state

rather they came up with conspiracies or in other words pointed the finger at the right wing extremists some quote unquote dark forces. they want the elections to be about arsons they want to fuel discussed and fear i hope the whole thing is not orchestrated by the dark forces that threaten our democracy and our independence. last night's events with my mom left before the election while well organized would not surprise me if the extreme right were involved in some way a false flag by the extreme right version is popular among some journalists to. sweden democrats sympathizers running around in the suburbs burning cars in a coordinated action to direct criticism of the suburbs population in the hope of favoring s.d. to make sure sweden can dodge any russian efforts to screw up its election

stockholm has even splashed out on the media so that they could wipe out the neverending fake news that was only to be hit by a wave of homegrown conspiracies before the police had at least something solid for the public. to tranquil r.t. . we spoke to swedish democratic campaign whose party has sparked controversy over its and t. immigration stance he says people are starting to realize that sweden is not as safe as they thought. the situation in sweden has started to seep out in the international arena when people suddenly realize whoops sweden is not a nice little country thought it was but now realize what the hell happened to sweden and so this is going on for a long time and we have made you know our sins and. many years back i just saw some statistics that. are still. in cars with

intent. has gone up from twelve to thirty percent from nine hundred sixty seven to one thousand five hundred cases a year or something and i mean it's been going up in actual numbers to. two nato allies turkey and the us are stepping up their economic war with each additional tariffs all the other the standoff has impacted the rest of the world with global financial markets taking a hit the number of currencies losing ground to the us dollar tariff tit for tat began after tokyo refused to release an american pastor being held on suspicion of terrorism concerns over whether things have escalated through march over the case were raised at the u.s. state department. what fortan this this one american to put global financial stability at risk. put u.s. base presence in turkey at risk put a nato ally alliance with an they failed partner at risk for one american who is

being put through the turkish just so you're saying this is our fault and this situation is our fault why escalate it to that level or or for a single american i believe it's not been torture or treatment. i think that is why i would take issue with the premise of your question turkey is a financial situation has been in the works for quite some time and it dates prior to the imposition of sanctions on august i believe was august the first so this has been in train for quite some time and even up when the u.s. government for that. quarter now takes a look at how the u.s. and turkey got to this point. country was built entire if the no leaving goes to great trade deals as opposed to the horrible food trade deals that are in heritage as your president of the country should not be allowed to come in and steal the wealth of all great you any longer what countries could he mean are stealing could

be turkey the country's lira shed a quarter of its value against the dollar in just one week after trump's tweet about doubling existing tariffs investors are running away screaming inflation surging and turkey's leadership is bracing for an all out trade war the reason for such a calamity against an old nato friend was ankara's refusal to release an american pastor accused of both terrorism and espionage it's punishment time for a rebellious ally that tariffs that are in place on steel would not be removed with the release of castor brunson and president heard a wand lashed out in defiance calling the u.s. move an attempt to force turkey to surrender and make them a slave to the greenback there is an economic attack against turkey only as such things were done in secret and now they're open to us we can react in two ways economically and politically. still some are wondering if ankara actually has the

power to challenge washington. come through of doing things. to come more well know who and they want to use this for political purposes but turkey is just one example of how the trumpet ministration treats longtime allies in fact many of america's friends have already been forced into the fray in a war of tariffs and sanctions canada had heavy steel and aluminum tariffs imposed earlier this year and trump perhaps thought the stars and stripes needed some protection from its northern neighbor who didn't take too kindly to it that it's kind of insult to move forward with retaliatory measures on july first applying equivalent tariffs to the ones that the americans of

unjustly applied to us as if that wasn't bad enough the us president went and slapped tariffs on europe today i'm defending america's national security by placing tariffs on foreign imports of steel and aluminum the american steel aluminum it just really has been ravaged by aggressive foreign trade practices. it's really an assault on a country brussels tried to hit back with restrictions of its own tried to appeal to the transatlantic solidarity special relations bonds of friendship but to no avail and it begs the question with such a long list of enemies the us is currently fighting from iran to north korea russia china why can't your allies it seems almost like we're we are. deliberately trying to push turkey out of the american camp but it is on a look at how this whole of the china. policy from about enemies like north

korea and iran and of course russia which as we know is our main adversary even though president trump says he wants to improve ties with russia but now turkey that's supposedly one of our closest allies i suspect there's something going on with regional politics maybe with regard to syria that is really the reason behind competitors like beijing and moscow attempting to pack as much heat as the u.s. these days sanctioning and scaring everyone in view may be the only way for the u.s. to impose its will on friend and foe alike donald quarter r.t. . c n n presents cuomo has spot for saying on violence coming from the left wing movement in the us is more morally justified than violence coming from the right the comments were made a day off the un teef it was involved in my neck clashes with police and

journalists while countering a white nationalist rally in washington all punches are not equal drawing a moral equivalency between those espousing hate and those fighting it because they both resort to violence emboldens hate legitimizes hate full belief and elevates what should be. stamped out by. my colleague on your farm a gut reaction both for and against chris cuomo squints. every time i see them on television they seem to be getting some kind of fight some kind of altercation it always seems to come from them it is

a matter if they're fighting hey or whatever they claim you can't put your hands on somebody and then hide behind some kind of moral high ground don't tell people if you don't want to be really just as simple as day it doesn't matter what political affiliation the other person is violence even if it's the most justified and righteous violence that you can have it still creates negative karma it is still very problematic saying to use something that should be diverted to only when it's absolutely necessary these are people who really are what they purport to associate be against they're talking about being an anti-fascist but a lot of their action mirrors that of what was on the mussolini's time with the whole black church situation it seems like they're doing the same thing i'm not saying that they're exactly the same as what was going on back then in italy but a lot of their tactics seem to mirror what they were doing just because i mean what is i bet you that is an ideal or a long i'll hold on wait wait wait wait just because somebody is hateful in your

eyes does not mean that it's ok or somehow justified at all to hurt then you can't say violence or maybe justify it no it's not if somebody does not put their hands on you you cannot put your hands on them is very simple if you put your hands on somebody then that person has a right to defend themselves you know you talk about don't put your hands on somebody will you know somebody that has yes there's somebody that wears a mask attacks dangerous people without personal provocation puts their hands on them you know who it is it's bad man this type of behavior is justified in our society violence can be used to prevent greater violence. no it doesn't it is against the law to commit violence against another individual yeah of course but the law does not dictate morality the law is just the law many people talking about . morally acceptable to hurt. those who are talking about hate but what about the innocent people as the members of the media get attacked by and used to use schoolteachers dean i mean he has also been attacked by the hand he's on played it

wait wait well wait hold on hold on i'm not finished you see people today are people of color as the left likes to call them being made by these individuals because if their political opinion so i don't really understand this whole thing about whoa it's ok if somehow justify sort of values i don't because most of the time when i see jimmy gage in his violence against those who just have different points of view you know i'd have to say see the statistics on that. you know we have seen a outbreak in street fighting between fascists and anti-fascists that absolutely has happened these people are just afraid they're cowards and they're acting in a way that is totally irrational because of their fear. donald trump is under fire after revoking the security clearance of a number of officials starting kluge the former cia director john brennan to use american reports exercised my constitutional authority to deny mr brennan access

to classified information sara sander spoke to press and she said the decision to revoke his clearance was based on his erratic conduct and behavior of defending the move as an effort to secure classified info from someone who has helped foment division in the past and clearly has a very partisan leanings the most divisive president an individual who basically pre-treat his nation routinely lies betray the women of the deceived and betrayed the american public and he misrepresents the facts and reality is a betrayal of the nation but this is not abnormal president john brennan himself has already chimed did blasting the move as part of a bid to suppress free speech and punish critics but for some context john brennan left his position as director of the cia back in january twenty seventeen and he now serves as m s n b c's senior national security and intelligence analyst but this whole debacle began last month when senator rand paul called brennan's motives

into question asking if he had been profiting off of his clearance by divulging secrets to the mainstream media his exact words he even met with trump asking him to revoke the clearances of not only brennan but i feel other prominent political figures i'm evaluating action with respect to the following individuals james clapper james comey michael hayden sally ates susan rice and german cave peter shrugged lisa page and bruce or security clearances for those who still have them may be revoked the president is doing the right thing rebooking to clearances of people who aren't contributing anything nearly a lot of them were higher ups in the f.b.i. and also it is. certainly. i mean i believe these people are all involved in this russia gate and fabrication of it and manipulating information and data for the public consumption to confuse and. you know create all kinds of uncertainty

in the government the government business that's that's what they that's why they should never had a clearance. to russian cosmonauts have conducted one of the longest of us space walks right outside the international space station and both were equipped with cameras to share the view with you. throughout thank you our thanks to our viewers before the hour right here in new york the long time for a little bit back every. year the laughter of the few people that your if you're have

a bit i'm going to out i should. never let you. on the better irresponsible lobbyist accessing unlimited credit from an irresponsible federal reserve bank you have a infinite regress that he saw with money starting in the one nine hundred seventy s. and now insurance companies selling insurance on insurance contracts on insurance contracts on insurance contracts with another bureaucrat another bureaucrat is infinite regress.

to turn them over to the authorities all of them are witnesses for the prosecution and the case. if you get out of a bit of the law which regulates intelligence gathering activities in russia forbids pleas from provoking someone to commit a crime the person under the name risler andy is a provocateur he carried out a provocation against children he did what he could to create this organization and make sure it looked the way he wanted. this is an unsanctioned so-called mothers march which hit the streets of the russian capital on wednesday people gathered to demand to the authorities transfer of the detainees to house arrest considering their young ages one of the detainees was just seventeen at the time of her arrest and the group's online chants she wrote that she was interested to learn how to throw molotov cocktails and claim to have known someone who could supply weapons guys i've remembered some connections there's a dude in

have when you're facing someone who's an active shooter the best way to take that shooter down that is with a gun but even better than that is four or five guns to one there's even talk of firearm training for preschool children it's something that we should think about america about putting guns in the hands of law abiding citizens whether they actually be good children or how to train for a school or a three year old cannot defend itself from and so i pulled by throwing a hello kitty pencil they said that our founding fathers did not put an age limit on the second amendment this year the back to school sales are just times. the notebook's parents are stocking up on body armor watch.
